My Approach in Action:
I am deeply committed to supporting couples and families as they strengthen their connections. Many couples and families encounter communication breakdowns or cycles of unresolved conflict that leave everyone feeling unheard and emotionally distant. In our work together, I provide compassionate and practical guidance—offering evidence-based tools for expressing needs, setting boundaries, and resolving disagreements constructively. For example, I recently worked with a couple facing ongoing arguments about parenting and discipline. Through structured exercises, we practiced active listening, established ground rules for respectful conversation, and clarified shared values beneath their differences. This process not only reduced their tension but helped them rebuild trust and work as a team again.

I also support families who are navigating transitions, blended household dynamics, or the aftermath of a breach of trust. By fostering open dialogue, encouraging mutual understanding, and teaching concrete strategies for problem-solving, I strive to ensure that each family member feels valued and heard. Whether you are adjusting to life changes, managing stress together, or rebuilding after a difficult period, my priority is to help you build healthy patterns that nurture connection and resilience over time.

In addition to my work with couples and families, I also help individuals with anxiety, depression, anger, relationships, stress and more…

A Personal Note:
I believe that you already hold the power to create lasting change in your life. My role is to provide the tools and support to help you unlock it. In our sessions, we work as a team in a space free of judgment. I am committed to helping you understand the connection between your thoughts, feelings, and actions. My goal is to empower you not just to cope, but to thrive, by building resilience and a stronger sense of self. Taking this step is a sign of strength, and I am here to guide you on your path forward.
