EFT has a 90% success rate in improving relationships. Before couples therapy, unmet attachment needs – such as the need for reassurance, support, closeness, appreciation, and to be understood and seen in a positive light – lead to emotional disconnection and conflict. In EFT, you will both learn how to express your needs and respond to them in a way that brings you closer together rather than further apart. Following EFT, you will feel a sense of safety and security in your relationship.

I specialize in addressing a wide range of relationship issues, helping individuals and couples navigate challenges such as communication breakdowns, trust concerns, and emotional disconnect. With a focus on enhancing interpersonal skills, I employ evidence-based strategies to facilitate understanding and resolve conflicts. My approach is grounded in empathy and active listening, creating a safe environment where clients can explore their feelings and experiences.

I specialize in working with teenagers to help better understand themselves, work through the tough transitions they experience, and navigate their emotional challenges. I use a range of approaches to provide tools and compassion for my clients. I strive for understanding and building confidence in my sessions so teens can face their everchanging lives with determination and strategies in their belts. Everyone deserves a place to be heard, and that includes teenagers.

I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients better understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Together, we identify unhelpful thought patterns that may be contributing to anxiety, depression, or other challenges and work to replace them with more balanced and realistic perspectives. CBT also provides practical tools and coping strategies that help clients manage difficult emotions, improve problem-solving skills, and create meaningful changes.

I use Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help clients develop practical skills for managing intense emotions, improving relationships, and navigating life's challenges more effectively. DBT focuses on building mindfulness, emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills that can be applied daily. Together, we can increase self-awareness, reduce emotional reactivity, strengthen coping strategies, and create healthier ways of responding to life's challenges.

Anxiety can feel overwhelming, but it doesn't have to control your life. I help teens and adults better understand the thoughts, emotions, and patterns that fuel anxiety while building practical coping skills to manage stress, uncertainty, and worry. Together, we'll develop strategies to increase confidence, emotional resilience, and a greater sense of calm in daily life.
