Great to meet you!

Hello! I am a relational therapist who works with individuals, couples and families struggling to feel understood and secure.

My approach to therapy

Guided by Family Systems Theory, I take the perspective of one's whole self - different parts of who you are and the experiences you come from. This further helps me guide individuals through self-exploration and identity. I specialize in working with parents and their adult children to facilitate genuine reconnection, support launching into independence, and foster relational repair.

I am trained in Attachment-Based Family Therapy and Internal Family Systems, particularly helping in deepening emotions as part of processing and healing loss and grief.

What you can expect from me

I work to be collaborative and direct, and am very personable. I emphasize the humanness and the relationship we are forming that may come with ruptures and repair, miscommunications, and our own trust building. Together, we work on deep exploration of who you are, where you come from, and where you want to go!
