14 years in practice

With over 12 years of experience in the therapy world, I have learned that one of my deepest passions is connection.

I provide individual, couples and family therapy, groups, workshops, and training. I use Attachment Theory, somatic principles, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Humanistic Therapy to guide the therapeutic journey. My expertise is working with parents – individually and as a couple – as they navigate the experience of becoming parents, from pre-conception, through birth and child raising. I support couples in exploring the shifts in their marriage after having children, and individuals in exploring the profound impact of becoming a parent, oftentimes including re-awakened past traumas. I also provide support in understanding family dynamics, trauma, addiction, and other trauma related issues such as relationship abuse, codependency, and attachment styles.
