Great to meet you!

I believe that every individual, couple, and coparent has the ability to grow, change, and build a more secure future, even amidst complex challenges. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I specialize exclusively in relationship dynamics, including couples counseling and post-separation coparenting. I also work with individuals, helping to develop the insight to overcome relationship challenges and life transitions.

My approach to therapy

My approach is direct, no-nonsense, and driven by evidence-based methods like Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). This means we'll skip the guesswork and use state-of-the-science techniques to resolve conflict, improve communication, and rebuild trust and security in your most important relationships.

What you can expect from me

In the first session I want to learn about you, your family, and your history I perform a comprehensive biopsychosocial assessment, including a family history, history of your adult relationships, emotional and mental health challenges, and attachment styles. By the end of the first session, we'll begin developing a plan to create essential change in yourself, your relationship, and your family.
