We listen, act, and transform
Are you and your partner having difficulty with communication or understanding each other? Has there been a reduction in joy or connection in your partnership? Do you have a hard time knowing what your needs are, how to express them, or feel that you don’t deserve to have them met? If any of your answers are “yes,” we might be a good fit! My primary focus is on helping couples with communication issues. I also work with individuals and couples who are dealing with the impacts of such issues as depression, anxiety, ADHD and other types of neurodiversity, LGBTQIA+ and trans needs, recovery from narcissistic abuse, and PMDD.
The therapy I offer is active and focused on creating change in specific areas, established by the client. I customize therapy to the individual or couple, using a variety of approaches, including Dialectical Behavioral Therapy skills, to assist the client in boundary setting, improved communication skills, and healthier emotion regulation.
My goal is to help people see how the various pieces of their lives have shaped their responses, so that they can connect with self-compassion, gain insight around where they are getting stuck, and learn new beliefs and skills. If you are looking for support navigating how to create change for yourself, I hope to hear from you! ( I AM ACCEPTING NEW COUPLES)
