Services

Everyone has natural strengths. My approach builds on what's already working for you while helping you change the parts of your life you want to transform. While I'll guide our sessions, your active participation shapes how you grow and how our therapy unfolds. We'll work together to set realistic goals that fit your specific needs.

Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, supported, and respected—where you can talk openly without fear of judgment.

Individual Adult Therapy

Every person’s journey is different, so our sessions will be tailored to fit your unique needs, whether you’re looking for short-term support to navigate a specific stressor or long-term healing and personal growth.

Through individual therapy, we will work on the following:

  • Gaining deeper insight into your personality and life experiences

  • Healing from past wounds

  • Learning tools for self-care, boundary setting, and improving relationships

  • Setting and achieving meaningful personal goals

Together, we’ll create a plan that supports your immediate concerns and your long-term well-being. You don’t have to go through this alone—I’m here to help you find clarity, balance, and strength.

Couples Therapy

Relationships can be complicated. Finding the right balance between independence and connection can sometimes feel frustrating, confusing, and lonely. Healthy relationships don’t just happen—they take effort, self-reflection, perspective-taking, communication, compromise, sacrifice, and a lot of empathy.

With 20 years of experience working with couples, I am qualified to assist you with repairing and improving your relationship! Using a variety of proven couples counseling approaches, I focus on helping you and your partner build a strong, healthy partnership. One of the key therapeutic methods I use is Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), which has been shown to:

  • Reduce feelings of depression

  • Strengthen intimacy and trust

  • Foster forgiveness between partners

  • Improve problem-solving skills

My approach is interactive and practical, ensuring each session feels meaningful and productive. Whether you’re navigating through a rough patch or want to strengthen your connection, I support you every step of the way.

Support for New Parents

Becoming a parent—whether through adoption or birth—is a life-changing transition. It’s exciting and rewarding but can also be overwhelming, exhausting, and stressful. Parenthood impacts so many aspects of life, from sleep and energy to role confusion, work transitions, conflicts around parenting, and intimacy. If you’re feeling anxious, frustrated, or not like yourself, you’re not alone—these feelings are completely normal.

I will support you as you navigate this life stage in the following areas:

  • Creating self-care plans that fit into your new routine

  • Building confidence and empowerment as a parent

  • Assessing and managing postpartum depression and anxiety

  • Reducing isolation and the pressure to be a “perfect” parent

  • Strengthening self-esteem and emotional well-being

  • Practical parenting tips and child development insights

  • Couples therapy to improve connection and teamwork with your partner

No matter where you are on your parenting journey, you don’t have to suffer from overwhelm alone. Let’s work together to help you feel more supported and grounded.

Family Therapy

Each session is tailored to your family’s unique needs and will focus on building skills in:

  • Empathy

  • Increasing insight

  • Effective listening

  • Healing old wounds

  • Conflict resolution

  • Problem-solving

  • Respect and tolerance

  • Setting healthy boundaries

  • Understanding different stages of development

Whether your family is working through a major transition or wants to improve communication and connection, I’m here to help guide you toward a stronger, healthier relationship

Let’s be honest—family life can be deeply rewarding and incredibly challenging. Every family faces transitions and stress in its own way, and sometimes, navigating those changes can feel frustrating, confusing, and sad. That’s where family therapy comes in.

I specialize in helping families strengthen their relationships and improve communication so everyone feels heard, valued, and supported. My approach includes:

  • Attachment-Based Family Therapy (ABFT) – Designed for families with teens struggling with depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts, ABFT focuses on rebuilding trust, reducing conflict, and fostering stronger parent-teen connections. Research has shown it can help decrease feelings of hopelessness, anxiety, and family tension.

  • Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) – EFT is all about understanding our core emotional needs in relationships and reshaping patterns to create deeper, more fulfilling connections. If you’re feeling hurt, ignored, disconnected, lonely, or stuck in your relationships, EFT can help you break unhealthy cycles and rebuild stronger bonds.

  • Structural Family Therapy (SFT): This method examines family roles, boundaries, and interactions to create healthier dynamics and a better balance between stability and change.

Professional Supervision

I have had the privilege of finding supervisors who would inevitably shape my career with regard to the type of therapy I went on to practice and the treatments in which I specialize.  Feeling a personal and professional connection with a Clinical Supervisor is important.  A Clinical Supervisor listens well and can anticipate the techniques you or your clients need at any point throughout your journey.  While working together toward Licensure or towards learning more about Emotionally Focused Therapy, I’m honored to share what my mentors taught me and what I have learned independently after 25 years of clinical practice.  Below is an abbreviated list of what we’ll process together:
