Not Accepting New Clients at this time. I help high-achieving couples and individuals who feel stuck in cycles of conflict, disconnection, or overwhelming anxiety. Many of my clients come to me feeling exhausted by repeating patterns or the weight of untreated childhood trauma and dysfunctional family histories. I help you move forward by providing an inclusive, compassionate, and active approach that blends deep insight with practical strategies. Using therapies like Gottman, EMDR, & DBT, I help you address and move beyond the pain to create meaningful, lasting change. Go to my website and fill out the Get Started form today.
My focus is on relationship repair and complex trauma, utilizing evidence-based frameworks like the Gottman Method, EMDR, & DBT. By deconstructing the roots of recurring friction and traumatic triggers, I provide the tools necessary to build emotional stability and secure connections. To accommodate demanding lifestyles, I offer weekly, weekend telehealth.
Navigating life’s complexities can feel heavy, and reaching out is the first step toward lightening that load. While breaking old patterns is difficult, you aren’t alone. I invite you to bring your authentic self to a space defined by collaboration, not judgment. When you're ready to move from survival to connection, I am here to walk that path with you.

I offer Gottman Method Therapy, EMDR, DBT, TF-CBT, and Narrative therapy. In your first session, we will explore what brought you to therapy, and I'll get to know you as a couple or individual. From there, we identify treatment goals together, the next steps to create the healing you are searching for, and begin the process together.
