Let's Connect (650) 547-0028

Many of my clients are highly self-aware yet feel stuck—longing for deeper connection but unsure how to access it. I work especially well with cycle breakers, couples and parents striving to raise their children differently. They may feel unheard, misunderstood, or disconnected, and long to feel safe, valued, and close again. I believe healing happens at the pace of safety, and I tailor each session to meet you where you are.

I help couples feel safe, heard, and connected again. Drawing from EFT, Gottman, and PACT, I guide partners to slow down, truly listen, and respond to each other with care. Together, we’ll untangle the patterns causing distance and create a relationship that feels secure, supportive, and alive again.

Every couple faces moments where connection feels out of reach. You don’t have to navigate that alone. Change is possible—whether you’re rebuilding after conflict, feeling distant, or wanting to grow closer. I’d be honored to help you find your way back to each other and create a love that feels safe and lasting.

I work with couples facing conflict, disconnection, or trust issues. In early sessions, we'll clarify the patterns keeping you stuck and set clear goals for repair. Using EFT, Gottman, and PACT, we'll build emotional safety, improve communication, and foster deeper connection. Many couples begin to feel hopeful and more connected within the first few sessions.
