I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with an M.A. in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University. My approach is psychodynamic and person-centered, grounded in curiosity, empathy, and the belief that healing happens through understanding ourselves in the context of our relationships. I integrate training in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and somatic mindfulness to help clients deepen emotional awareness, strengthen communication, and build secure bonds with themselves and others.

Originally from the East Coast, I know firsthand how challenging it can be to build your life and family far away from home and loved ones. That experience informs my commitment to supporting couples through important transitions such as moving in together, starting a family, or learning to stay connected through the demands of parenthood. I help partners understand the emotional patterns that keep them stuck, and create new experiences of safety and closeness.

Before becoming a therapist, I trained and practiced in bodywork, which continues to shape the way I listen, attuning not only to words, but to the subtle shifts in tone, posture, and energy that reveal how we hold emotion in the body. This somatic sensitivity supports a deep level of empathy and presence in my work with clients.

I am direct and engaging to work with, while also making lots of space for emotions to unfold safely. I believe that our partners are important attachment figures in adult life, and one of our greatest assets. I understand how serious matters of the heart are, and I’m here to help you feel more secure in your relationship so that you can build a life of success together.
