I believe that meaningful therapy begins with a thorough understanding of each person’s unique story, experiences, strengths, and challenges. Early in our work together, I complete a comprehensive assessment to gain a deeper understanding of the concerns bringing you to counseling, as well as the emotional, relational, behavioral, and life factors that may be contributing to distress. Assessment is not about labeling or judgment—it is a collaborative process that helps identify patterns, clarify goals, and understand what may be getting in the way of healing or growth. Information gathered through assessment helps guide individualized treatment planning and informs the therapeutic interventions we choose together, ensuring that counseling is thoughtful, targeted, and responsive to your specific needs, strengths, and goals.

Therapy is most effective when it feels personal, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs. I provide individualized counseling that is guided by your goals, experiences, strengths, and areas of concern. My approach combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps identify and change unhelpful patterns of thinking and behavior, with psychodynamic interventions that explore deeper emotional experiences, relationship patterns, and past influences that may affect present challenges. Above all, therapy is person-centered—meaning we work together to understand what matters most to you and create an approach that feels supportive, meaningful, and practical. My goal is not to keep people in therapy indefinitely, but to help clients gain insight, develop effective coping strategies, and build the confidence and tools needed to navigate life more independently and fully.

It's not unusual that there may come a time when couples begin to question whether they are truly compatible. Perhaps you have felt a disconnect for some time, or you find yourself quarreling over the same issues. I provide relationship counseling that supports couples in improving communication, deepening understanding, and navigating conflict in healthier, more constructive ways. Each relationship is unique, so therapy is tailored to the specific dynamics, needs, and goals of the couple. My approach is person-centered and collaborative, creating a balanced space where both partners feel heard, respected, and supported. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) strategies to help identify and shift unhelpful interaction patterns, improve communication skills, and reduce reactivity during conflict. I also draw from psychodynamic perspectives to explore underlying emotional patterns, attachment needs, and relational histories that may be influencing current struggles. The goal of therapy is not to assign blame, but to foster insight, accountability, and meaningful change in how partners relate to one another. Ultimately, the work is focused on helping couples build healthier patterns and stronger connection, with an emphasis on growth, clarity, and the development of tools they can continue using outside of therapy.
