Are you and your partner struggling? Are you in that painful space where you try to communicate but keep misunderstanding and hurting each other? Is the love you have for each other harder to find as you navigate difficult times? When you feel stuck and lost, I will listen. I will collaborate with you to build relationships you value. I help individuals, couples, and families connect. We use skills, empathy, insight, activities, and values to work through conflict and differences. Ultimately, you can heal emotionally, reconnect, and live a life you value and enjoy.
My therapy work centers on helping people connect better with others and with themselves. I specialize in working with couples and families. I also do therapy with children and adolescents, including parents and/or guardians as needed. I have a gender-inclusive approach and enjoy working with varied types of families. I am licensed in NC, MI, and ID.
Taking the first step to schedule an appointment is often the hardest part of the process. Contact me for an initial consultation with no obligations. We can chat on the phone or in teletherapy about your situation and see if it would be a good fit for us to work together. If I am not a good fit, I may know someone who would be.
