Areas of Practice

Individuals

I provide therapy to individuals ages 16 and over. I work best with clients who are motivated and open to fostering insight and awareness. I strive to help individuals increase self-worth, find comfort in being his or her authentic self, create appropriate boundaries for him or herself and others, and discover ways to respond, rather than react, to challenging situations. As a marriage and family therapist working from a systems/relational perspective, our work together will include exploring the important relationships in your life that helped to inform your way of being.

Couples

I thoroughly enjoy working with couples to identify the needs of the relationship and provide guidance on how to achieve a workable partnership of love and fulfillment. Often, couples seek treatment to address communication concerns. Whether you feel your needs are not being met, you’re not feeling heard, or you’re frustrated with certain behaviors, I can help you and your partner uncover what is getting in the way of your desired relationship. 

Perhaps you’re in a satisfying relationship or engaged to be married; therapy can be immensely helpful to cement the foundation you would like to continue building upon and address possible concerns for the future before they become problems!

As a Prepare/Enrich facilitator, I am able to provide an evidence-based assessment for couples looking to understand how each partner feels about and views vital issues relationships are built upon. This allows us to see your shared strengths, as well as areas that need more attention. This can also help to navigate the direction of therapy.

Love is love. I am an LGBTQ+ ally and see clients who are in consensual open/non-monogamous and kink/BDSM relationships.

Families

Family is an essential part of living a healthy, happy, and balanced life. Whether your family is biological, adoptive, or chosen, we can collaborate to create a space that fosters individuality while building a cohesiveness that positively embraces each family member. I can help you and your family create and strengthen healthy boundaries, enhance problem solving skills, and increase effective communication.
