It's overwhelming at times when you're trying to manage unresolved issues or conflict in your romantic relationship. Or maybe you're both trying to find your way back to each other after a betrayal. You're aware of systemic inequity & value inclusion; you're also tired struggling so much as a couple, not getting your needs met or not knowing how to change. You notice these issues affecting your health and it's been difficult to focus, often you're not sure what to do. You've struggled long enough on your own and you're ready to make lasting changes. If this is you, and you're ready to begin together or on your own, let's talk!

Specializing in finances and relationships, I'll help you through confusion or indecision, build on your strengths, and learn ways to handle the unexpected with confidence. I also work with people in alcohol recovery and healing from childhood trauma. Using attachment, relational, body-based and anti-oppressive therapies, we'll find healthier ways to cope!

The journey of healing relationships or money can be complex and challenging for most. Especially when dealing with white supremacy and massive human rights violations. I can support you to process emotions and develop tools to heal and grow. My approach is specialized, collaborative and person centered. Email me to schedule an initial call and lets talk.

I specialize in couples therapy, and also work with ADHDers, anxiety, financial stress and trauma. To start, we'll tackle your urgent issues and collaborate to support you to heal and find balanced relationships. Most patients tend to see a gradual lifting of symptoms in the first two months and further along with deeper more complex work, they find more balance joy and fulfillment.
