About

Do you feel stuck in the same arguments or patterns of distance, no matter how hard you try? Many people want stronger relationships but end up feeling frustrated, unseen, or misunderstood. I work with couples and individuals to break unhelpful cycles, rebuild trust, and create relationships that feel secure and lasting. As a Certified Perinatal Mental Health Counselor, I also support new and transitioning parents through role changes, stress, and the challenges of early family life—helping you stay grounded, resilient, and connected with yourself, your partner, and your baby. View 4 Photos I specialize in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), a proven, research-based method for improving communication, repairing trust, and building lasting closeness. My approach is trauma-informed and integrates mind-body practices for practical, whole-person support.
