My approach with relationships is to show both you and your partner respect and empathy to allow healing and repair. The goal is to strengthen communication, improve intimacy and build skills that will allow for a revival of your relationship. I utilize a lot of the Gottmans’ teaching in therapy which is an evidence based approach for happiness in relationships. I’m happy to see couples or individuals who seek answers regarding communication, sex, and intimacy.

Trauma is the Greek word for “wound” which is what can often happen when we experience a distressing event. I work with survivors of parental or spousal violence as well as children of narcissistic parent(s). I also welcome first responders and healthcare worker to be in a space to unpack and relax. I utilize EMDR to help slowly dive into your memories and process without minimizing or comparing. The space I create is safe and nonjudgmental so that all clients may find relief.

Taking from my own life experiences and from my years working in hospice and healthcare, I have created a warm and inviting practice either helping older adults themselves or supporting the caregivers that help them. Life doesn’t always prepare us for what happens as we age or as our parents age, and I intend on making that process much more manageable. Therapy is a space you can be your most authentic self and I’m happy to be part of your support team.
