I help clients experiencing anxiety, rumination, and shutdown in relationships to address the roots of these difficulties so they can experience more ease and connection with others. Are you in a good relationship that’s triggering a lot of discomfort and making it hard to show up for your partner in ways that you like? I can help you feel less anxious, find clarity and better meet your needs in romantic, platonic and familial relationships. If you struggle with anxiety, care-taking, or avoidance and have potentially outgrown certain ways of dealing but still struggle to cope effectively - I understand and can help.
Your relational past influences your present experiences with others. Often, the strategies you developed to survive these past situations no longer serve you and may be keeping you from showing up in relationships and the world in the way you wish. Together we can better understand and shift your current relationship patterns where needed.
I utilize an integrative approach that incorporates mindfulness, attachment theory, IFS and ISTDP which are effective forms of empirically-supported psychotherapy that safely attend to anxiety and trauma. I will help you move beyond just thinking about your feelings, so that you can actually change the way you interact with yourself the people in your life.
