Professional statement

Accepting New Referrals! If you’re reading this, chances are you’ve been feeling hurt, stuck, or unsure how to find your way back to the connection you once had. My heart is in helping couples, individuals, and teens move through the pain of disconnection, rebuild trust, and experience deeper intimacy. Together, we work to break painful cycles, strengthen communication, and create relationships that feel safe, supportive, and full of possibility again. In my work with couples, I use the Gottman Method and Relational Life Therapy, two highly effective, research-backed approaches for repair.


Message to clients

It takes courage to reach out for support — especially when life or relationships feel overwhelming. I believe people are so much more than the sum of their past experiences or the roles they've had to take on. Yet, for so many of us, life can start to feel defined by old patterns, painful experiences, or expectations that no longer fit.

I believe that everyone has the potential for growth and transformation. I am passionate about helping my clients find healing in their lives through therapy and counseling.
