Are you feeling stuck in the same painful arguments, emotional disconnection, or overwhelming distress—even when you're trying so hard to make things better? Whether you're struggling individually or in your relationship, lasting change begins by understanding what lies beneath the surface. I help individuals and couples uncover the underlying emotions and unmet attachment needs driving these patterns. We'll work together to understand your experiences, heal old wounds, and create more secure, connected relationships—with yourself and the people who matter most.
My work is grounded in Attachment Theory. I am a Certified Emotionally Focused Couples Therapist (EFCT) and have completed EMDR basic training. I am also an AAMFT Approved Supervisor and am currently pursuing certification as an EFT Supervisor.
Taking the first step toward therapy can feel vulnerable. My goal is to offer a space where you feel heard, supported, and understood. I provide a brief consultation to explore whether we’re a good fit and to answer any questions you may have. If another clinician may better meet your needs, I’m glad to provide trusted referrals.

I specialize in attachment-based work with individuals and couples using an EFT approach. We identify negative cycles that keep you stuck and uncover deeper attachment needs. When unresolved past experiences trigger your nervous system, I integrate EMDR to process them, supporting lasting change and emotional safety.
