What Therapy with me is like…
Truth with Care
I want to be completely real with you, because I'm in your corner. I believe that real change happens when honesty and kindness meet.
Curiosity, Not Judgment
You don’t need to show up with the right words or have everything figured out. We’ll get curious about what’s going on with your patterns without making you feel wrong for having them.
We Can Slow It Down
You don’t have to solve everything at once. Sometimes the most useful thing we can do is slow down enough to notice what’s actually happening before rushing to fix it.
You don’t need a therapist who sits quietly and nods while you do all the work. I’m relaxed and collaborative, but I’m also active in the room. I’ll help you slow things down, notice the patterns you’re caught in, and challenge you when it might help. While still making plenty of room for humor, messiness, and being human.
Couples Therapy: When did talking to each other get so hard?
Maybe a simple conversation turns into way more than you meant it to. You try to talk about the dishes, the schedule, sex, parenting, or how disconnected you’ve been feeling and somehow you end up having the same argument again.
Maybe one of you pushes harder to be heard while the other shuts down. Or maybe you’ve both gotten quieter, and the relationship has slowly started to feel more like logistics than connection.
This might sound familiar…
You keep having versions of the same fight.
You feel lonely even when you’re together.
You scroll next to each other more than you actually talk.
Affection, sex, or playfulness has faded.
You still care—you just don’t know how to get back to each other.
Here's how I help…
We slow the pattern down and figure out what’s actually happening underneath it. The goal isn’t to teach you the “right” way to communicate—it’s to help you understand each other differently, repair more easily, and rebuild the kind of emotional and physical connection that feels real.
Fight less. Feel closer. Find your way back to being partners again.
Individual Therapy: When Relationships Take Up Too Much Space in Your Head
Maybe you replay conversations, worry that someone is upset with you, or realize you’ve gotten really good at keeping everyone else okay while losing track of yourself.
Sometimes the questions are bigger: Is this the relationship I want? Do I want children? What if we want different things? What if I make the wrong choice? You can spend so much time trying to get certain that you end up feeling even more stuck.
This might sound familiar…
You second-guess yourself waaay after a conversation ends.
You feel guilty setting boundaries or disappointing people.
You’re not always sure what you want when someone you love wants something different.
You’re questioning a relationship, marriage, children, or what you want your future to look like.
You keep hoping that if you think about it long enough, you’ll finally feel 100% sure.
Here's how I help…
We slow all of that down. Not so I can tell you what decision to make, but so you can hear yourself more clearly underneath the fear, pressure, expectations, and overthinking.
We’ll look at the patterns you get pulled into, what you actually need, and how to trust yourself even when there isn’t a perfectly certain answer.
You don’t need perfect certainty to start trusting yourself.
