I enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families through life's challenges. Life can be tough at times. External stressors, inner turmoil, and relational problems can cause significant disturbances in our lives. As a therapist, I want to compassionately and honestly walk with you as we explore new ways to engage with your world.
I have experience with clients facing grief, anxiety, depression, trauma, marital/relational challenges, family issues, and infidelity. My approach is rooted in Attachment Theory. In addition to having a Masters of Marriage & Family Therapy, I have postgraduate training in trauma (EMDR) and couples therapy (Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy).
I know it takes great courage to reach out for help. I would love the privilege to work with you. Personally, I know the benefits of therapy as it aided me in a time of burnout & deep discouragement several years ago. It is my desire to help you find the same help that I did. Feel free to sign up for a free 15 minute consultation.

I especially like working with couples who may be experiencing relational issues and working with them to find new ways to connect and appreciate each other. Additionally, I find it rewarding to work indivuals who maybe experiencing anxiety, depression or grief especially if it is related to trauma.

Much of my framework for therapy is informed by attachment theory which postulates that one of the driving forces for our behaviors is the need to be relationally connected to others. Oftentimes, therapy will explore the motivations and beliefs that fuel this need to have safe, seen, and secure relational connection no matter our age or stage of life.
