About My Clients

I work with both individuals and couples, focusing on anxiety, relational issues, life transitions and perinatal mental health. We work together to build on communication, emotional regulation, reactivity, and connection. We focus on slowing down the narratives, assumptions, and spiraling thoughts that impact our self-esteem and our relationships. I offer communication strategies, coping skills, empathy, and understanding.

My Background and Approach

With a Masters in Couples and Family Therapy, I take a relational approach in session, looking at your support systems, work/life balance, and family dynamics to better understand you. I want to know how you interact with the world and the people around and how the world interacts with you. Together we will identify the narratives, beliefs, and relationships that no longer serve you and build skills that allow you to advocate for yourself, feel confident in your values, and empower you to live authentically in your life. I take a narrative and strengths-based approach, helping individuals and couples reclaim their stories and feel empowered to live authentically.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I have a Bachelors Degree in Theatre and enjoy working with fellow creatives and actors. I encourage my clients to share their humor and creativity in session, offering a collaborative space to explore and reflect. I also am SHRM certified and help clients advocate for themselves at work, offering tools and tips to to navigate the work space and feel empowered to ask for what they need.
