Do you find yourself stuck in the same relationship patterns over and over? Do you emotionally explode during conflicts, filling up with rage followed by shame? Or perhaps you shut down in response to a fight, vowing never to open up and trust again. Regardless of your unique patterns, relationship issues often trace back to early life experiences, whether you experienced childhood trauma or more subtle misattunements to your needs and feelings. These early attachment issues may continue to manifest as addiction, poor relationship choices and low self-worth.
Using attachment theory, Internal Family Systems, and somatic approaches, I offer a safe, reparative relationship where you can explore protective parts and strategies that may no longer serve you. Drawing from my background in creative arts therapies, I also use expressive practices to help you access insights that talk therapy alone sometimes can’t reach.
I love working clients who are curious and willing to engage in a collaborative process - using the therapeutic relationship as a rehearsal space where we can explore what’s working and what isn’t, giving and receiving feedback as we practice new ways of connecting. Healing happens when you feel truly safe, not when someone else thinks you should be ready.

My focus is relationships. I work with couples and individuals who are eager to find new and more effective ways of connected with self and others in compassionate and wholehearted ways. In the early stages of our work together, we'll explore the ways in which you learned to love and how this continues to show up today, creating rupture as well as opportunities for lifelong repair.
