Do you feel stuck and enough is enough? Are you caught in a cycle, living the same internal story over and over?
I work with couples, individuals, and families who feel ready to stop living on autopilot and start living with intention. The people I meet don’t come to therapy because they’re “broken." They come because they’ve hit a point where old ways of coping no longer match the life they want to live. Patterns that once protected them now keep them small, tired, overwhelmed, or disconnected.
I help people understand why these patterns formed and how to outgrow them with clarity and compassion.

Wellness is more than the absence of problems. It is the lived experience of feeling more free, more steady, and more fully yourself. I work from the belief that the resources for healing are already within you, and that therapy helps you access and strengthen them with clarity and care. As Krishnamurti wrote, “It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.” The context we live in matters, and part of my work is helping you name that reality clearly so shame loosens and agency returns. From there, we focus on what is workable: steadier regulation, clearer boundaries, and more authentic connection.

You may find yourself stuck in patterns you can’t seem to break—whether it’s substance use, sex, pornography, food, or cycles of anxiety, overthinking, and avoidance. Even when things look stable on the outside, these patterns can leave you feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or out of control. I work with individuals and couples to understand what’s driving these experiences, including relationship anxiety, and how to create lasting change.

Who is emotionally focused therapy for?
Emotionally focused therapy (EFT) is for couples who are emotionally distressed, stuck in an unsatisfying relationship pattern or feeling deeply alienated. They may even believe the relationship is beyond repair. Very often, the partners display intense anger, fear, grief, loss of trust, or a sense of betrayal in the relationship. In addition, EFT is helpful to couples and individuals who have difficulty expressing emotions and those who have trouble regulating emotions.
Why do people need emotionally focused therapy?
People need emotionally focused therapy because the need for others is built into the brain, but the pressures of daily life can erode feelings of love, and couples often do not have the skills to find their way back to the comfort of each other. Instead, they may be stuck in repetitive patterns of anger, fear, grief, loss of trust, or a sense of betrayal. Emotionally focused therapy regards such strong negative feelings as expressions of protest over the loss of connection and turns them into pathways of reconnection.
What happens in emotionally focused therapy?
Over the course of eight to 20 weekly sessions, couples de-escalate their negative emotional reactivity to one another so that they can listen to each other and be responsive to each other’s needs. Then the deep emotional and physical bond is restored, giving partners a sense of comfort and security, which they can use to solve whatever problems come their way. The therapist plays an active role, helping partners understand how anger and withdrawal are actually misguided cries for connection.
What problems does emotionally focused therapy treat?
EFT is designed to help couples stuck in dysfunctional relationship patterns regain closeness and rebuild their relationship. Typically, such couples experience considerable distress, with partners feeling alienated and distrustful of one another, not certain their relationship can survive. EFT is also helpful to individuals experiencing attachment-related fears of loss; it helps them learn to use their fears as a way of eliciting the closeness they desire.
