Couples and individuals: you may have experienced low self-worth or self-doubt, over-reactivity or numbness, chronic pain and other physical manifestations of symptoms, relationship conflict or disconnect. These are some of the challenges that I have helped clients work through and recover from. Healing and creating change can feel like daunting tasks. I will partner with you in addressing these issues in a holistic way, utilizing evidence-based therapy techniques, while also incorporating what is uniquely important to you and your life.
I am trained in Emotionally-Focused Therapy for Couples, one of the top evidence-based treatments for helping couples communicate better and reconnect in their relationship. EFT helps couples slow down in the moments where they might be missing each other, to build deeper understanding and empathy and reduce the escalation of familiar cycles.
Depending on individuals' needs, I am trained in several models that have an experiential component (not just cognitive) that can access deeper places of healing. These models include EMDR, Healing Our Core Issues and Pain Reprocessing Therapy. Please feel free to reach out with any questions about my practice. I look forward to hearing from you!

Some of the symptoms I treat include anxiety, depression, self-destructive thinking, unhealthy coping strategies, as well as difficulty in relationships. We may also look at the underlying emotional source of physical symptoms. I use a mix of talk-therapy, as well as experiential and somatic models to access deeper healing.

With individuals, I use two models, EMDR (attachment-based) and Healing Our Core Issues, or a combination of the two. Both of these models help build self-esteem, self-compassion, and assist us in building stronger relationships with others. They help us distill down into our more authentic selves and to feel more ease in the world. These models have been pivotal in helping my clients grow.
