As a relational therapist, I offer a space where you don’t have to do it all or be it all. I primarily work with women and couples, with a focus on the unique challenges women face—especially around identity, motherhood, burnout, and relationships. I believe in showing up as a real person in the room (or on the screen), holding space for your whole story with honesty, warmth, and humor. Together, we’ll explore what’s working, what’s not, and what healing could look like in your real life—not just in theory.

Approach Description: My approach is eclectic and deeply relational, drawing from Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), the Gottman Method, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), humanistic principles, and solution-focused strategies. I tailor each session to the individual or couple in front of me, integrating evidence-based tools with a warm, real connection. Whether we’re exploring patterns in relationships, making space for your emotions, or finding practical ways forward, my goal is to support meaningful change in a way that feels authentic, compassionate, and sustainable.
