You and your spouse feel like two ships passing in the night. Or like you're on opposite teams or speaking two completely different foreign languages. You miss how your relationship used to be. You want to be teammates again working together, spending time together, connecting again. When was the last time you had a date night? Weekend getaway? Intimacy? What even is that anymore? I help couples find themselves back towards one another, to be able to fully engage and appreciate their partner again. If you want to feel less alone and more in love, you have found the right place!
I bring authenticity, empathy, and curiosity into the therapy room to help individuals and couples feel safe to explore these questions and stressors. I strive to empower clients in working towards achieving the confidence and security involved to tackle these things head on, gracefully and fearlessly.
By working collaboratively and utilizing psycho-education, experiential, and narrative techniques, we will create pathways to your best self. Currently accepting in-person sessions for local clients and telehealth sessions statewide. Please visit my website for more info and to set up a free 20-minute video consultation to see if I am the therapist for you.

I take a collaborative approach with clients when it comes to which modality may work best for them and their goals. Treatment types I use most often include Narrative Therapy, Experiential Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and Family Systems. These are less direct and you can expect to feel more like I am walking beside you figuring things out than trying to lead you down a specific direction
