Great to meet you!

I offer a warm, inquisitive, and direct approach for couples and individuals ready for meaningful change. Whether you’re navigating a major life transition, preparing for a baby, adjusting to life with young children, or adapting to the ever-changing demands of life, our work together can help you move through this season with greater ease, clarity, and connection.

Becoming a parent was one of the most meaningful and challenging experiences of my own life. It gave me a deep appreciation for the extraordinary demands that parenthood can place on individuals and couples. I have a special place in my heart for partners and individuals navigating the many stages of family building—from preparing for a baby to adjusting to life with young children and beyond.

At the same time, I work with folx dealing with life's many challenges, and I will meet you wherever you are. Together, we’ll create space to better understand what’s happening, strengthen your relationships, and move toward the changes you’re hoping to make.

My approach to therapy

I am currently accepting couples, individuals, and families in my practice. I utilize targeted methodologies to help partners and individuals break free from unhelpful patterns, shift power imbalances, and build deeper connection through practical, lasting relationship skills. My specialized trainings include:

  • Relational Life Therapy (RLT) (Currently certifying)
  • Perinatal Mental Health (PMH-C) (Currently certifying)
  • Expressive Arts Therapy

Common Themes We Can Address:

  • Relationship Issues & Communication Gaps
  • Perinatal & Postpartum Adjustments
  • Parenting Alignment & Family Conflict
  • Life Transitions & Stress Management

What you can expect from me

I offer virtual therapy sessions, with dreams of one day welcoming clients to a farm-based expressive arts therapy studio. If my approach resonates with you, I'd love to connect. Reach out by phone or email, or schedule a complimentary 15-minute consultation.

Note for couples: While our focus is your partnership, appointments on this platform are booked under one primary individual's insurance plan for family/couples sessions (CPT 90847).
