Individual Therapy for adults (telehealth only)

I help adults move from anxiety and self-doubt to confidence and self-compassion. The common challenges I work with are life transitions and adjustments, relationship difficulties, culture-related, grief and loss (including non-death loss), stress management, identity, self-esteem and self-worth, perfectionism, anxiety, depression, and trauma.

Couples Therapy (telehealth only)

My approach to couples therapy is rooted in attachment theory, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and the Gottman Method. I help couples recognize the negative cycle that keeps them in a bind, and help them discover new ways to repair and connect. I specifically work with couples who both long to improve their relationship. The common challenges I work with are communication, difficulty with life transitions (e.g., married life, parenthood, etc.), issues with trust, and navigating grief and loss. The No Secrets Policy applies to Couples Therapy.

What is “The Cycle“ in EFT?

The cycle in EFT pertains to the negative pattern we get into with our loved one. This cycle keeps us in a bind and creates disconnection. One of the key elements of EFT is taming the cycle. In this video, Sharon Mead, a Certified EFT Therapist, lightheartedly gives an introduction on what taming the cycle can look like.
