About

Couples Therapy-
I believe that you can experience more fulfillment, connection, and happiness in your relationship. Couples counseling has incredible potential to bring healing, build intimacy, and change unhealthy patterns. You may be living with constant conflict and tension or feelings of cold distance. Couples therapy can help you calm the emotional storms and bring you closer together. I believe that the process of couples therapy provides you an invaluable opportunity to grow both as a couple and as an individual. When working with couples I utilize both Gottman Method Therapy and Emotionally Focused Therapy.
Individual Therapy-
My approach to psychotherapy follows an Interpersonal, Relational model. Relational therapy emphasizes that the driving force in our lives is toward relationships and the source of much of our grief and distress are feelings of isolation and loneliness. The way we function in the world is often shaped by past experiences of relationship, which at times have been destructive, painful, or negligent. Understanding your story and the ways in which it impacts your life today serves as an avenue of healing and wholeness. I believe that the bond we build together has the potential to bring about growth and change, as you learn to connect more deeply to yourself and others. My work is also informed by Attachment Theory, Mindfulness, and Interpersonal Neurobiology (brain science). If you feel that you would like to incorporate learning specific skills for coping with anxiety or emotional dysregulation, I will happily work with you toward that goal.
