Realizing that it is time for change within ourselves and in our relationships can feel overwhelming, especially coupled with stresses of daily life. My mission is to help you foster the courage and resilience it takes to strengthen your relationships and live life authentically with tangible steps. Whether you are a couple who feels disconnected and hurt from conflict and ineffective communication, a parent who has concerns about your child's fears and anxieties, or an individual who feels lonely and confused, there are ways to restore and redefine your sense of purpose, your feelings of connection, and create productive patterns.
I utilize a trauma-informed and integrative lens when exploring challenges within the different systems that couples, individuals, and families function. Couples and individuals will discover the patterns that make them feel disconnected and stuck, and identify skills that will help them move beyond conflict, disconnection, and lack of intimacy.
Mutual trust and respect are at the forefront of my therapeutic approach. Ensuring that you feel comfortable and safe with me during your therapeutic journey is an essential part of your progress towards self-awareness and healing. I look forward to getting to know you and moving towards change together in any system that you find a sense of belonging.
