You may feel stuck in patterns you understand logically but struggle to change emotionally. Perhaps stress, overwhelm, emotional eating, or ongoing challenges in relationships have become ways of coping, even though they no longer serve you. You’re motivated for change, yet frustrated by cycles of short-term progress followed by setbacks. You want lasting relief, greater self-trust, and healthier relationships—with food, your body, and the people in your life.

Finding a mental health provider is challenging and scary. There are plenty of worries, concerns and fears when trying to find someone that is a good fit for you and your mental health goals. "Will the provider judge me? Will anyone understand? There is no way anyone will get what I am experiencing!". Maybe it is not just fear but maybe there is also shame, guilt, embarrassment, or hopelessness around what you are going through.

Are you struggling with relationships? Are you feeling misunderstood or wondering if you are the problem? So many people I work with, both women and men, feel disconnected in their personal and/or professional relationships. Not because they don’t care, but because they don’t feel heard. It turns into silence, frustration, repeated arguments, and resentment. Good communication isn’t about saying more. It’s about saying it differently and feeling safe enough to do it. This is something we actively work on together, understanding triggers, communicating without escalation, rebuilding connection, and setting clear boundaries.

Many adults start therapy when trauma, grief, chronic pain, or emotional stress begin affecting daily life, relationships, or their ability to feel stable and grounded. I work with adults who want practical support and a place to talk openly about what they are going through.
Before becoming a therapist, I served as both a registered nurse and a military officer. Those experiences shaped how I understand resilience, stress, and the connection between physical health and emotional well-being. They also guide the way I approach therapy—with respect, directness, and a focus on the whole person.

Emotionally Focused Therapists
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.
