I work with highly motivated couples and individuals who are ready to transform their lives. I use various integrative methods including the Gottman Method Couples Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Seeking Safety, and Mindfulness.

These approaches help folks feel more grounded, improve communication, boost connection in relationships, support recovery from drugs and alcohol, and much more.

Find the support you need for your mental well-being.

Whether you're looking for couples or individual therapy, I work with those who need support with relationship, mental health, addiction, sexual orientation, and more.

Our work together will always encourage you to explore your thoughts, emotions, and identities freely.

Everyone's experiences and needs are unique, and I promise to honor our work and your journey accordingly.
