If you are looking for couples or individual therapy, you've had an exhausting journey to this point. Perhaps you are a self-sufficient person who is used to making it on your own, but there is so, so much you are asked to hold right now. You may notice that in the strain in your relationships, in your unexpected emotional reactions, and in your body. There can be an overwhelming gap between the life and relationships you hope to have and your day-to-day reality. I offer a way forward through couples therapy and individual therapy that is informed by rich training and experience while honoring your depth, complexity and uniqueness.
My couples clients develop insight into the dynamics that keep them entrenched in emotional disconnection or conflict while actually experiencing new, nourishing ways of being together. My individual clients learn a new posture toward anxiety and chronic stressors in their present while also attending to healing tender places in their past.
You have been holding so much for so long, and it makes sense if it has been hard to find your way forward. I would be glad to be with you in this as someone who is sturdy enough to hold it with you while able to see new possibilities. So reach out to explore if I can help you deepen in restfulness, steadiness, and freedom in your life and relationships.
