Infidelity can shake the foundation of even the strongest relationship. If you’re feeling hurt, angry, disconnected, or unsure whether your relationship can survive, you don’t have to navigate this alone. I work with individuals and couples struggling with betrayal, broken trust, and emotional distance. Many of the clients I work with are also navigating substance use or recovery. Together, we focus on healing relational wounds, rebuilding safety, and creating honest, meaningful connection.

I support individuals with substance use, recovery, self-esteem, and the emotional impact of relationship stress or betrayal. I work with couples facing infidelity, broken trust, and communication challenges. My approach is structured and compassionate, focused on understanding patterns, rebuilding emotional safety, and creating meaningful change.

I understand how overwhelming addiction, infidelity, and relationship pain can feel—both personally and professionally. You don’t have to face it alone. Healing is possible. Therapy can be a safe, supportive space to sort through the pain, rebuild trust, and move forward at your own pace. When you’re ready, I’m here.
