Relational depth psychotherapist helping couples and individuals understand and interrupt the patterns shaping conflict and connection.

Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist in Palm Desert, CA

About My Clients

I work with couples and individuals who feel stuck in recurring relationship patterns they can’t seem to interrupt on their own. Many partners come to therapy because the same conflict keeps repeating or conversations escalate faster than they expect. I also work with individuals who want to better understand their triggers, attachment patterns, and relational roles, especially when a partner is not ready for couples therapy.

My Background and Approach

I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and founder of Hecate Healers, a depth-oriented psychotherapy practice focused on relational work. I specialize in helping couples and individuals understand the patterns shaping their reactions and relationships. My work integrates depth psychology, attachment-based therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and the Gottman Method for couples. Together we explore the emotional triggers, attachment dynamics, and unconscious relational roles that shape how partners respond to one another. Rather than focusing only on communication skills, I help couples slow down the pattern driving conflict so both partners can see what is happening beneath the surface and begin responding differently. I bring over 20 years of experience in healing and personal growth work and am currently completing a PhD in Depth Psychology at Meridian University. My goal is to create a grounded, collaborative space where insight leads to real relational change.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe healing happens in relationship. Many of the struggles people face today are shaped by family patterns, cultural expectations, and systems that reward over-functioning, self-abandonment, or emotional suppression. My work is trauma-informed, LGBTQIA+ affirming, and grounded in values of equity, accountability, and relational responsibility. I support movements that promote social justice, including racial equity, reproductive justice, and gender equality. At the same time, I believe therapy should be a space where people can slow down, reflect honestly, and reconnect with their own inner clarity. When individuals take responsibility for their reactions and relational patterns, meaningful change becomes possible not only within themselves, but within their relationships and communities.
