My work as a psychotherapist is rooted in a profound belief that by recognizing and honoring our complex, messy life stories with honesty and gentleness, we lay the foundation to heal the obstacles preventing us from building fulfilling, meaningful lives. Throughout life, we all create narratives about ourselves to help us survive. These narratives are shaped by myriad factors (individual life experiences, relationships, intergenerational legacies, and experiences of oppression/privilege, belonging/rejection, among others). Over time, our narratives and coping mechanisms fall short. We wonder, what went wrong? What's wrong with me?

The famous love story has always ended with couples in love with one another, but what about when they reach another stage? What about when couples fall into being in life with one another instead? If this sounds familiar to you, you are not alone and I am here and happy to help. Couples therapy is about listening to understand, rather than listening to respond.
