Individual Therapy
Life is hard! We get it! At times, sharing your story with another person can offer new perspectives and open doors for healing, growth, and change. Our goal is to listen with curiosity and without judgment. To create a space that is safe, supportive, and comfortable. Together, we walk beside clients as they feel empowered to change their lives and find hope.
When working with youth, we take a very collaborative approach based in attachment and family systems perspectives that actively involves parents. We believe that children cannot change on their own. They need the support and guidance from those who love them and know them best. Parents will be asked for regular feedback and progress as well as to participate in individual coaching sessions as necessary.

Relationship Therapy
Our approach when working within relationships is grounded in attachment theory and Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples. Sessions are extend to a minimum of 90 minutes to allow enough time for each person to be heard and their experience validated. Together, we strive to resolve the root cause of problems that show up within adult relationships and get in the way of a secure attachment. With increased awareness of how past experiences influence present feelings of connection, empathy and compassion are fostered, trust grows so healing can begin.
Family Therapy
Family therapy provides the opportunity for all members to discuss important issues in a safe space, inviting understanding of each other's needs, increased respect, communication and teamwork . While focusing on the family system, not on one individual person, I strive to help families to find deeper understanding and opportunities to reconstruct meaning.
Support is available for parents who are experiencing change, conflict, or other challenges, with the goal of strengthening communication and connection.
