Are you seeking change in your life or relationships? I approach conversations that will promote self-awareness and deeper insights that can facilitate enduring personal growth and healthier relationships. My hope is that my questions will generate new understandings and perspectives that you can use for the rest of your life. I aim to create a comfortable space where you can share and strengthen your skills and resources.
I work with individuals looking to overcome obstacles, navigate difficulties, and foster self-growth. I help couples discover new patterns of being together while restoring intimacy, passion, and commitment. With families, my hope is to strengthen relationship bonds and better understand differences.
I utilize a systemic, trauma-informed approach to therapy with individuals, couples, and families. I work with a variety of concerns and challenges from multiple therapeutic models, including dialogic therapy, solution-focused therapy, narrative therapy, and integrative therapy. Selecting the right therapist is important and I would be happy to meet with you for a free 20-minute consultation so you can see if I am a fit for you.
