I believe that therapy works best when client and therapist have a strong rapport and the client leaves each session with something actionable they can do to make a change in their life.

 

My focus areas are:

 

Couples: I'll help you learn how to calm down and get closer. I'll work with you to integrate healthy communication patterns and secure attachments to one another. I also help couples navigate the challenges of divorce with grace, as well as help premarital couples become confident before the big day and for a beautiful future together.

 

College Age/Young Professionals: I'll help you navigate this new life phase as you balance the demands of school, work, friendships, and love. Adulting is hard! I am here to teach you skills to manage your stress and anxiety while building long-lasting relationships.

 

Adolescents: I work with teenagers and their families to build bridges of understanding. I'll work with you to build healthy habits, manage peer pressure and expectations, and work through issues of self-worth and confidence. There's nothing better than having someone who is not your parent to talk to at this age.
