The primary purpose of therapy is to ease emotional pain and suffering. We often wonder, "Why does this keep happening to me?" or "What do I need to feel content?" Through compassionate and nonjudgmental care, we will explore together the roots of your discontentment. I am an experienced psychotherapist with a solid background in treatment of attachment wounds and trauma resolution. I have devoted my professional life to helping others free themselves of unhealthy patterns and painful relationship dynamics. Licensed in both Delaware and Virginia to provide virtual couples, family, and individual therapy.
I am an expert in attachment and trauma therapy, working with clients ages 0-99. Whether you are a new parent, a parent struggling with an unhappy child or teen, or an individual who never quite had their emotional needs met, I can help. If you have suffered relational trauma, neglect, abuse, or have never felt comfortable trusting anyone, let's talk.
If you have never had success in therapy, I understand. Finding a good fit with a provider can be difficult. With me, you may discover something completely unexpected: a therapist who meets you where you are, who gently guides you to expand your comfort zone and gain skills to enable you to create the life you desire.
