My ideal clients are couples who want a stronger, healthier relationship—whether you’re navigating the pain of betrayal, wrestling with pornography or sexual addiction, healing from infidelity or past trauma, or simply feeling stuck in distance, repeated conflict, or fading intimacy. Some couples come ready to rebuild after a crisis; others arrive tired looking for some hope. However you show up, I am happy to help.
Its my job to help you navigate these challenges that feel overwhelming or confusing. It's probably been a long road. My approach focuses on fostering a safe connection through which we can learn more about the root of what is causing the relationship issues.
I'd be happy to offer a free 'consultation'. Really, this just means that I can begin to learn your story and provide some guidance of what time in therapy would look like together, offering a much needed 'roadmap' moving forward. I'm only a call or email away, and looking forward to talking soon.

I practice psychodynamic therapy, which focuses on uncovering the root causes of your challenges by exploring past experiences and how they influence your current behavior even when you're unaware. This approach helps you gain insight into patterns and emotions that may be affecting your life, leading to lasting changes in the present. It is one of those most studied forms of therapy.
