“The ways we connect with ourselves and others are shaped by our past experiences…”

Have you found yourself caught in recurring conflict with your partner, struggling to rebuild trust after infidelity, or navigating tension with in-laws and differences in cultural backgrounds? Are you noticing repetitive patterns that leave you emotionally drained, isolated, or distressed?
Maybe past experiences are affecting your ability to feel safe, connected, or understood in your relationships.

As a relational therapist, I believe the ways we connect with ourselves and others are shaped by our past experiences, family systems, identities, and the patterns we've learned over time. 

I work with individuals and couples navigating infidelity, trauma, recurring conflict cycles, relationship challenges, family dynamics, and intimacy concerns. Together, we'll identify dynamics keeping you stuck, rebuild trust, and develop new ways of navigating difficult scenarios.

My clinical training includes the Gottman Method, Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy. I draw on these approaches to support relationship growth, trauma processing, and move towards change.

Who I Work With:

Individual Therapy:

In individual therapy, we'll explore how past experiences and established thought patterns may be affecting your sense of self, emotional well-being, and relationships. Together, we'll work toward greater self-awareness, process difficult experiences when appropriate, and develop tools that support you with navigating stressors.

Couples Therapy:

In couples therapy, we'll work to recognize unhelpful conflict cycles, communicate needs more effectively, and develop a stronger understanding of each other's experiences. When trust has been broken, we'll focus on addressing the impact of the betrayal and identifying what repair and rebuilding trust may look like for your relationship.
