My approach is grounded in Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Intimacy from the Inside Out (IFIO)—models that help us understand and work with the protective, reactive, and vulnerable parts we all carry. Rather than trying to change or eliminate these parts, we approach them with curiosity and care, allowing healing to unfold from within.
In couples therapy, IFIO brings this same lens to the relationship. We slow down reactive patterns, deepen understanding, and foster emotional safety, helping each partner connect from a more open, Self-led place.
I specialize in working with clients navigating emotional pain, internal conflict, relational challenges and trauma. In addition to Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Intimacy from the Inside Out (IFIO), and I also integrate Attachment Theory and Polyvagal Theory to support nervous system regulation and emotional safety.
Therapy That Honors All Parts of You-Clients often tell me they feel safe, understood, and more at ease in our work together. I bring warmth, clinical depth, and a sense of humor (when appropriate) to support meaningful, lasting change. Whether you’re here to begin or to go deeper, I’d be honored to support your journey.
