About

I believe people are fabulously interesting and that your story matters. Together, using evidence-based approaches, we’ll explore emotions and behaviors that may feel confusing, destructive, or too complicated to understand. You may feel stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, anxious about the future, or weighed down by sadness or disconnection. Together, we’ll unpack the roots of your pain, strengthen coping skills, and find compassion for the parts of you ready for growth and connection. I am also passionate about working with couples to improve meaningful communication, or reconnecting when promises have been broken. My approach blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy, grounded in the belief that our present reactions can be deeply rooted in the past. Healing begins when we acknowledge the tattered edges of grief, anger, or hopelessness and gently rediscover our authentic selves with compassion and curiosity.
