With over 20 years of experience, I specialize in guiding and supporting individuals as they navigate complex relationship issues. Many of my client are individuals with addiction (you or a loved one), depression, anxiety, trauma, and relationship issues. I help people resolve unhealed emotions and break patterns they’ve been stuck in so they can grow in setting limits, building confidence, and feeling better.
I work with people who are feeling stuck, disconnected, or overwhelmed, and help them move toward a greater sense of connection, clarity, and hope. In our work together, I use practical tools to help you better understand your thoughts and how they may be getting in the way—this comes from a method called cognitive-behavioral therapy, which helps people notice and shift unhelpful thought patterns. I also use an approach called acceptance and commitment therapy, which helps you move forward even when life feels messy or uncertain by focusing on your values and what really matters to you. I’m trained in EMDR, a therapy that helps the brain heal from painful experiences and ease the intensity of troubling memories. Whether you’re an individual struggling or struggling with a love one to communicate, I offer strategies to lower emotional intensity, strengthen your relationships, and help you focus on what matters most. Together, we’ll create a path forward with useful skills and a clear plan, so real change feels possible.
I create a safe & comfortable space for you to share openly. During the initial consultation, I gather information & devise the best ways to help. Because I believe knowledge is power, my intention is to help you understand your presenting concerns or addiction. In the following steps, I collaborate with you on new ways of coping, communication, & connecting in relationships. I aim to help you find purpose and belonging in the world, to discover personal strengths, & look forward to your life.
