Rebuild connection, strengthen values, and grow together - therapy that gets to the HEART of your relationship so you can move forward, FORGIVE, and learn how to TRUST again.
"The quality of our relationships determines the quality of our lives." - Esther Perel
Solution-Focused Brief Therapy helps couples create fast, practical change by focusing on strengths and future goals.
The Gottman Method uses proven tools to build trust, improve communication, and strengthen emotional connection for couples.
Trauma-informed care meets you with safety, empathy, and tools to heal without retraumatizing your nervous system.
EMDR helps you process trauma, reduce anxiety, and create lasting emotional relief without staying stuck in the past.
Working one-on-one, we help you identify patterns that keep you stuck—whether it’s anxiety, depression, or past trauma—and guide you toward clarity and action. We integrate evidence-based practices like EMDR and CBT with a direct, compassionate approach, so you’ll not only feel heard but also empowered to make meaningful, lasting changes.
We work actively with couples to rebuild trust, improve communication, and deepen emotional intimacy. You won’t just talk about your problems—we’ll get to the root of them. Our style is structured, solution-focused, and results-driven. You’ll leave each session with new insights, practical tools, and a clearer path toward connection and growth.
When working with families, we focus on breaking through disconnection and tension by creating space for each voice to be heard. We help uncover systemic patterns and guide family members toward healthier ways of relating. With warmth and structure, we foster openness, vulnerability, and accountability—leading to stronger, more supportive relationships.
I believe vulnerability is strength. It takes courage to speak the unspeakable, to sit with discomfort, and to share your inner world with someone you love—even when it feels risky. In my work, vulnerability isn’t a weakness to avoid; it’s the doorway to intimacy, trust, and healing.
In-person and online sessions are available, offering the flexibility to fit your busy life. Whether you prefer the comfort of your home or the connection of face-to-face support, We work with your schedule to make therapy accessible, consistent, and convenient. Morning, evening, and weekend appointments are available.
LGBTQ+ couples face unique challenges and strengths, all of which deserve affirming, informed, and nuanced support. Therapy should honor the complexity of queer relationships, offering safety, understanding, and space to grow without judgment.
" We learned how to fight without fearing the end."
You don't have to avoid conflict. You just need the tools to navigate it without loosing connection or security.

"We stopped reacting and started listening."

"We don't shut down anymore, we stay in it together."
You built the skills to tolerate discomfort and stay present in hard moments, instead of walking away or shutting down.
"We became teammates again."
Instead of trying to win, you started solving problems together. “Me vs. you” became “us vs. the issue.”
"We brought intimacy back by slowing down."
You stopped going through the motions and learned to connect emotionally first—physically second.
"We learned how to repair, not just apologize."

"We learned how to repair, not just apologize."
You stopped repeating "I'm sorry" and started practicing real accountability, empathy, and change.
"We stopped avoiding the real stuff."
Instead of walking on eggshells, you now talk about the hard things with honesty, respect, and care.
"We rebuilt trust, one honest moment at a time."
There was no magic fix—just consistent, vulnerable effort. Trust became a daily practice, not a distant goal.

"We rebuilt trust, one honest moment at a time."

"We started speaking each other's emotional language."
Once you both felt heard, the cycle of miscommunication softened, and connection became easier to access.
Love isn’t just a feeling—it’s a practice. It lives in the small moments: the way we listen without interrupting, the choice to reach for our partner during tension, the willingness to be honest when it would be easier to shut down. Feelings come and go, but love as a verb means we show up—even when it’s inconvenient, imperfect, or uncomfortable. It’s the decision to engage when disconnection would be easier.
Love as a verb is about action. It’s in asking, “What does my partner need today?” not just “How do I feel today?” It’s choosing to repair after a fight, to lean in when your partner is hurting, and to practice empathy even when you’re exhausted. These acts build trust, stability, and a shared sense of safety. Love doesn’t just sustain itself—it’s cultivated through the way we care, respond, and stay.
And when both people treat love as an active practice, not a passive feeling, something powerful happens: the relationship becomes resilient. It becomes a space where conflict isn’t feared but worked through, where vulnerability isn’t avoided but honored. Love, in this form, becomes a foundation—not just a spark. It's not something you fall into; it's something you build, over time, together.
