Great to meet you!

Welcome! I'm glad you are considering me as your therapist. I will be committed to listening to you and coming alongside you to help you discover the inner peace and relational healing you long for.

My approach to therapy

With couples, I use an emotion focused and attachment lens to uncover negative communication patterns and help couples experience the closeness, safety, and connection they deeply desire.

With individuals I use an investigative approach...exploring wounds from the past in order to create new narratives in their life that bring joy, fulfillment, and relational wholeness.

What you can expect from me

In our first session together my goal will be to get to know you, hear your life story, and seek to understand the heartache that has led you to pursue counseling.
