I have experience supporting parents who are navigating stress, burnout, and the emotional challenges that come with caregiving.

I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and use this approach to help clients identify and challenge unhelpful thought patterns that contribute to emotional distress and problematic behaviors. I support clients in developing practical coping skills, improving emotional regulation, and building healthier ways of thinking and responding. CBT allows me to offer structured, goal-oriented interventions that promote meaningful and measurable change.

My work focuses on strengthening connection, improving communication, and supporting couples in creating healthier and more satisfying relationships.
