Couples therapy isn’t just for relationships in crisis. It’s for partners who want to strengthen their connection, improve communication, and feel like a team again.

I work with LGBTQ+ couples, bi-racial and bi-cultural couples, Spanish-speaking couples, as well as pre-marital and married partners. I support both monogamous and non-monogamous relationships, and individuals navigating relationship concerns.

Living with trauma that's repeated or lasted for years isn't something you just 'get over.' Especially when it's shaped your entire way of being. I work with individuals who are experiencing PTSD, complex trauma, ADHD, anxiety, or mood disorders, many of whom have been told to "try harder" or "calm down" for most of their lives. You might feel like you're always on edge, or like something bad is about to happen, even when things seem okay. Or maybe your brain feels like it's running in 20 different directions at once, and it's exhausting just trying to keep up.

I work with clients who feel stuck, disconnected, overwhelmed, or unsure how to make sense of what they are going through. You may spend a lot of time in your head, struggle to trust yourself, feel pulled between who you are and who others expect you to be, or feel unseen in your relationships. In therapy, I am less interested in judging your thoughts or feelings than in understanding what they are trying to tell us. Together, we can explore how your past experiences, relationships, identity, and coping strategies shape the present, while building tools to feel more grounded and connected to what matters.

I have experience working in both private practice and community mental health settings. Previously, I worked at Ally Counseling and Therapy, where I supported clients navigating cultural transitions, attachment trauma, and identity-related stressors, with a particular focus on women’s mental health and empowerment. I also co-facilitated a women’s empowerment therapy group addressing attachment trauma, relationship concerns, body image, sexuality, and intimacy. This work was especially meaningful in supporting individuals from cultural backgrounds where discussing emotional or relational challenges may not always feel accessible.
