Therapy is more than a conversation—it's a turning point. It's where healing begins, clarity emerges, and your story starts to shift. I bring advanced clinical training and deep experience in trauma recovery, postpartum mental health, personality dynamics, adolescent development, and complex mood disorders. With board certification (BCD), national recognition in trauma (CCTP), and perinatal mental health (PMH-C), I offer high-level expertise with a human approach.

I work with clients who are struggling with issues such as anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, self-criticism, or the lasting impact of abuse. Some clients come to counseling because they feel stuck in unhealthy patterns, overwhelmed by life transitions, or are adjusting to chronic illness. I offer a safe, supportive space to process experiences, build coping skills, improve emotion regulation, restore self-confidence, and develop healthier relationships. Together, we can work toward greater self-awareness, resilience, and lasting change so you can move forward with more confidence and balance.

Can your relationship recover after an affair? Can you find your way back to one another after years of conflict, emotional distance, or broken trust? If you're searching for couples therapy, chances are your relationship is hurting. Maybe you've discovered an affair and your world has been turned upside down. Maybe every conversation ends in another argument, or you've stopped talking altogether. Perhaps you've begun wondering whether you'll ever feel close again. The good news is that many relationships can heal when both partners are willing to understand what happened and do the work of creating something healthier together.

Divorce Therapists
How does therapy for people affected by a divorce work?
Individuals may feel a number of emotions following a divorce, such as shock, guilt, grief, anger, and fear. Therapists offer a non-judgmental space for individuals to talk about what they’ve experienced and process their emotions. Therapists will help clients develop coping strategies. They can also help a client rebuild their sense of self and self-worth and talk about what a happier future might look like.

What’s the most common type of therapy following a divorce?
There are several types of therapy that may be useful for divorce, including cognitive behavioral, acceptance and commitment, solution-focused brief, and mindfulness-based therapies. Many therapy types are talk-therapy based, which is typically the most popular option for individuals dealing with divorce. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a widely-used talk therapy, however, there’s no specific therapy type that’s designed to help people with divorce, and different types will work depending on the person.

When should an individual seek help due to a divorce?
When the feelings of a divorced individual, or an individual going through the process of divorce, begin to disrupt healthy daily functioning, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not performing at work due to problems with anxiety or motivation, if they’re no longer seeing friends due to feelings of shame, or if they’re not properly taking care of themselves as a result of depression, speaking to a professional could help.

How do you encourage someone to go to therapy due to a divorce?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the individual while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Sharing how the individual appears to be suffering, and what effects it has on them or on their children, should be done with compassion and empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
