I am a trauma therapist with over 12 years of experience working with adults and couples. I've been married for 21 years to a retired Army combat veteran, which shaped my understanding of trauma, resilience and the importance of safe, supportive relationships.
My work is grounded in Relational Life Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and Attachment Theory, while also integrating the Gottman Method and other evidence-based approaches. I support individuals and couples in exploring patterns shaped by early experiences, understanding how those patterns emerge in current relationships, and developing healthier, more fulfilling ways of connecting. I believe healing occurs within safe, supportive relationships, and I collaborate closely with clients to create a space where they feel understood, respected, and emotionally secure. I am passionate about helping individuals and couples work through childhood wounds, attachment dynamics, and relationship challenges so they can experience deeper connection, security, and understanding. I am currently pursuing a PhD in sexology/addictions and under supervision to obtain my certification in sex therapy.
In our first session, we’ll take time to get to know each other and talk about what brings you to therapy! We’ll gently explore your goals and important relationship experiences, and begin noticing patterns that may be influencing how you connect with others. The focus is on creating a supportive, collaborative space where you feel heard, respected, and emotionally safe.
