Family relationships can leave lasting emotional wounds. I work with individuals navigating family conflict, difficult parent-child relationships, emotionally immature parents, unhealthy communication, boundaries, and generational patterns.

Together, we explore triggers, coping strategies, relationships, trauma, and underlying emotions without judgment or shame.

I provide a supportive environment where clients can work through their experiences at a pace that feels manageable while building resilience and
