Are you stuck in painful conflict loops or struggling to communicate with your partner? Maybe you're moving toward deeper commitment or marriage, but not sure how to navigate it. Relationship struggles can leave you anxious, alone, or unsure of yourself. Sometimes past trauma or family dynamics show up in your relationship, or unhelpful ways of coping create distance. You’re ready to change patterns, feel emotionally safe, and deepen your connection and communication. Whether you're single or partnered, stuck in conflict cycles or seeking purpose, creativity, or self-worth, I'm here to support you to create the change you long for.
With 20+ years as a Couples Specialist, clients seek me to uncover the root issues behind distress and build conscious, secure partnership. As someone attuned to the needs of highly sensitive people (HSP), I create a warm, collaborative, nonjudgmental space, guiding you to improve communication, shift painful dynamics, and grow into the courage of intimacy.
Whether you're navigating early commitment, seeking repair and rebuilding trust after rupture, or exploring dating after loss or heartbreak, I offer a safe landing for your healing and growth. Together we’ll remove barriers and build bridges to conscious communication & intimacy. I can also provide Hypnotherapy. Reach out today… I offer a free consultation!

I help singles and couples find deeper connection and happiness in their lives by examining deeper values and how you can live by them. I encourage an intimacy-based approach to relationships rather than a fear-based one. During our sessions, we will look at where you might be stuck internally, and how to gain clarity, direction and empowerment in your life going forward.
