There may be so many relational ups and downs, you may feel on edge, overwhelmed, isolated, and disconnected from yourself and others. It may feel like you lack the words to describe what you want or need or when you speak up, your voice is again pushed to the side. You may long to feel more clear, confident, and at peace, but feels like you're constantly in an uphill battle. This is exhausting.
Therapy with me is a warm and open place where I can help give you the space and time to voice your emotions and thoughts in ways that create more clarity, relief, and confidence- giving you the tools to help regulate your body and mind so that you can feel more connected and secure in the life that you dream to live.
I am passionate about working with and supporting women who have experienced abuse of any form and want to feel more secure and at ease in their bodies and relationships, and I also enjoy work with couples who feel stuck, hopeless, and tired of relational ups and downs.
I would love to be apart of your journey. Feel free to reach out for free 15 minute consultation or video call.

Treatment Approach
- Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) Helps people accept difficult thoughts and feelings instead of fighting them, while committing to actions that reflect their values. It blends mindfulness with practical behavior strategies.
- Christian Counseling Blends psychological practices with Christian values and scripture. It provides faith-based support for life challenges and spiritual growth.
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Combines CBT with mindfulness to help regulate emotions, tolerate stress, and build stronger relationships. Originally designed for borderline personality disorder, it’s now used more broadly.
- Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) Focuses on strengthening emotional bonds in couples or families. It helps people identify negative cycles and create more secure connections.
- Family Systems Therapy Looks at problems within the context of the family as a whole. It aims to improve communication and balance in family relationships.
- Gottman Method Couples Therapy Based on decades of research, this method gives couples tools to improve communication, manage conflict, and strengthen intimacy.
- Internal Family Systems (IFS) Helps clients heal by working with different ‘parts’ of themselves, like inner critics or wounded children. It fosters harmony within the self.
Approach Description: I am primarily attachment based in my approach and use a combination of EFT, IFS, and ACT. These modalities help individuals understand the patterns they get stuck in that make them feel disconnected from themselves, others, and the moment.
