Do you feel lonely or disconnected from the people who matter to you most in life? You care deeply, put in so much effort, and yet still feel like you're never enough or left alone in that place of struggle. It can be exhausting even devastating to be stuck in these patterns that fail to reflect who you truely are and how much you care. I work alongside you to slow things down, understand what is driving these patterns, and move toward meaningful healing. I aim to create a judgment‑free space where you feel supported, seen, and understood. You bring your lived experience, and together we work toward real change, not just coping.
I help individuals and couples navigate feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected whether due to past experiences, current stress, or relationship challenges. In a safe, nonjudgmental space, we will slow down, explore what is driving these patterns, and work toward more connection, understanding, and support, both with yourself and those who matter most.
Navigating the effects of attachment wounds in relationships can be isolating and frustrating. Whether you're grappling with the aftermath of an affair or other difficulties in your relationship, I understand the courage it takes to reach out. I offer free 20-min consultations to ensure I'm a good fit for you. Ready to schedule? Call or shoot me an email.

I work from an Emotionally Focused, human-centered approach where my goal is to understand the world through your eyes. In our first session I strive to understand what you most want me to notice, feel, or understand about you. Many clients leave saying they feel comfortable and heard and "you're really easy to talk to".
