Most of the people I work with don’t appear to be struggling. They’re successful, dependable, and keep showing up for everyone else. But beneath the surface, they’re carrying anxiety, stress, emotional exhaustion, or the effects of past experiences that never seem to fully go away. If you’ve been pushing through, overthinking, or feeling disconnected from yourself, therapy can help. Together, we’ll better understand what’s keeping you stuck, strengthen your coping skills, and help you move toward a calmer, more fulfilling life.

Anxious perfectionism shows up as perpetual shame, guilt, and self-punishment. No matter how hard you try, you're always falling short. It's exhausting, but you don't really know how to relax and probably don't sleep welll. Maybe you're a grown-up "gifted and talented" kid, or the child of immigrants, or the sibling who had to keep it together. Anxious perfectionism may also show up as body tension, severe procrastination and indecision, and difficulty with boundaries and people-pleasing. Perfectionists don't do things perfectly—they feel like they ALWAYS have to do better, and they can’t be happy until they get there.

When people experience and interpret the world differently, relationships can feel complex and disconnected. I work primarily with neurodivergent couples—including those with ADHD, autism, and other cognitive differences—as well as teens and their families. Many clients come in feeling stuck in patterns of miscommunication or emotional distance. While I offer psychoeducation, my primary focus is to help you slow things down, understand the deeper feelings underneath your interactions, and create new ways of connecting so your relationships feel more clear, secure, and supportive.

I believe there is a space for everyone in therapy. No matter what challenge you are facing, you have a place in counseling. I am a supporter of awareness, acceptance, and different perceptions. There is much power in those tools and understanding them. Bring who you are to therapy, and I will help in every way possible to get you to a place of healing, self-love, and the discovery of the power of mental health. There is something to be said about struggle and what it does to a person, what it makes a person. With the correct tools, struggle does not have to define you.

You may feel like you have spent much of your life adapting, surviving, or holding things together on the outside while internally feeling disconnected, exhausted, or unsure of who you are or what you need. Trust may be difficult, emotions may feel intense or unpredictable.
If you are seeking therapy, you may not be looking for someone to “fix” you. Instead, you may want to be understood, supported, and empowered. You may want a collaborative approach where your voice matters, your pace is respected, and your goals guide the work. Healing, for you, may need to look different.

Open Relationships Non-Monogamy Therapists
Why might an individual want to see a therapist specializing in open relationships and consensual non-monogamy?
A client seeking help with an open or consensually non-monogamous relationship will prefer to talk with a professional whom they can count on to be nonjudgmental. Talking with a supportive therapist may on its own help relieve some of the stigma and challenges partners face. That said, the most important factor in the success of any type of therapy is the ability of the client and practitioner to form a strong, trusting bond. For this reason, an individual or couple could find success with a therapist who does not specialize in non-monogamous relationships but with whom they can build trust.
When should open or consensually non-monogamous partners seek counseling?
Like other couples, polyamorous partners typically seek counseling when they face relationship challenges they can’t solve themselves. In non-monogamous relationships, this could include breaches of trust, including infidelity; unclear rules or violations of boundaries; jealousy of outside partners; the stress of juggling the needs of multiple partners; or the effect of high partner turnover on children. Like those of other couples, polyamorous bonds can be threatened by increasingly frequent arguments, poor or dysfunctional communication, diminished emotional or physical intimacy, or the feeling that something is wrong, even if they don’t know what it is.
Do therapists have special training to gain expertise in open relationships and consensual non-monogamy?
No, but individuals seeking help with non-monogamous relationships would most likely consult a licensed professional with specific training in couples counseling or couples therapy. Couples counseling and couples therapy both involve teaching concrete strategies to navigate conflict in relationships. A good therapist can engage both partners as they explain these approaches but can also work with a single partner.
How long does therapy for consensually non-monogamous couples typically last?
Couples therapy for any type of couple, tends to be relatively time-limited, lasting around 12 weeks on average. A good therapist will tailor sessions to the individual partners’ emotions and sometimes their past, along with patterns found to be repeating in the relationship. In many cases, clients should expect their therapist to assign “homework” between weekly sessions.
