Welcome — I'm So Glad You're Here

A compassionate space for healing, reconnection, and growth

Life can be complex—and sometimes, even overwhelming. Whether you're living with chronic pain, trying to co-parent with someone you don't always see eye to eye with, or struggling to connect with your teenager, you're likely carrying a lot. And maybe you're tired of carrying it alone.

I'm here to support you.

As a psychotherapist with a systemic lens—and with personal and professional experience in the areas I specialize in—I provide a space where you and your loved ones can feel seen, heard, and supported without judgment. I work with individuals, couples, and families who are ready to shift out of stuck patterns and move toward a healthier, more connected way of living.


The people I work with often come to therapy feeling worn out, misunderstood, or unsure of how to move forward. I get it. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. I believe in you—in your story, your strength, and your ability to heal and grow, even in the hardest seasons.

No matter which path brings you here, I’m ready to meet you with empathy, clarity, and care.

Let’s take the next step—together.

My Areas of Specialty

Living with Chronic Pain

Family Therapy for Teens and Adolescents

Living with Chronic Pain

When you're in pain, every part of your life is affected—your relationships, your mood, your sense of identity. As someone who personally lives with chronic pain, I understand how invisible and exhausting it can be. Therapy can offer emotional relief, coping tools, and support that honors your reality and helps you reconnect with what matters most.

Co-Parenting Support

Family Therapy for Teens and Adolescents

Living with Chronic Pain

Co-parenting isn’t always easy—especially when communication breaks down or emotions run high. Whether you're co-parenting from the same household or separate ones, I help parents work through conflict, rebuild cooperation, and center their child’s well-being without losing sight of their own needs and boundaries.

Family Therapy for Teens and Adolescents

Family Therapy for Teens and Adolescents

Family Therapy for Teens and Adolescents

If your teen is pulling away, acting out, or just not themselves, it can be deeply painful—and confusing. Family therapy helps you reconnect, rebuild trust, and shift out of blame or silence into open, effective communication. You don’t have to figure this out alone. Together, we can get your family back on the same team.
