Effective therapy for individuals and couples to become your best self and live your best relationships
If you are here, something in you already knows it is time for change.
Most of us stay loyal to what is familiar, even when it hurts. Our brains are wired to resist change, and our relational patterns are deeply ingrained. Choosing to look for support means you are no longer willing to live on autopilot.
You may be intelligent and capable, yet feel disconnected from purpose or joy.
You may struggle with self criticism, guilt, or shame that does not reflect who you truly are.
You may feel stuck in repeating patterns that leave you exhausted, anxious, or depressed.
Or you may have a solid life, but find your primary relationship distant, conflictual, or lacking vitality.
Welcome! I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with over 25 years of experience helping individuals and couples successfully transform their lives and relationships.
I’ve applied my lifelong study of best principles and practices of personal development into high-impact therapy, producing fulfilling and meaningful results.
Many people do not know that individual therapy and couples therapy require different training expertise. Both require empathy, strong communication skills, and knowledge of how people grow and heal. In addition, couples work is more complex and dynamic. My professional mastery embodies two parallel paths, one supporting individuals and one coaching couples. Regarding individuals, I draw upon extensive training in Internal Family Systems (IFS), CBT, Transactional Analysis, Wonder, the Lefkoe Method, Mindfulness, and teachings from ancient spiritual traditions. Regarding couples, I’ve studied intensively with recognized couples experts, Terry Real of Real Life Therapy and Dr.’s Bader and Pearson of the Developmental Model of Couples Therapy.
The common thread among these approaches is to produce deep change quickly, empower you as an individual, and reconnect you relationally with both yourself and the people in your life.
If any of this resonates, you are not broken. You are patterned.
I am a certified Relational Life Therapist. I offer Relational Life Therapy as a path of relational recovery, repairing your relationship with yourself and with others. This is active, experiential work focused on interrupting self abandonment, strengthening boundaries, and learning how to live in connection rather than reactivity or withdrawal.
Whether you come as an individual or a couple, the goal is the same: a more grounded, honest, and connected way of living and relating.
Please explore the site and learn more about my work. If it feels like a fit, I offer a free 15 minute consultation by phone or Zoom to see whether working together can support the life and relationships you want to create.
