How I can help
Therapy and Coaching can provide you with beneficial insight and help give you the tools to communicate effectively, build your confidence and empower you in your relationships and in life. My style is direct, genuine, personable. Our rapport should feel natural and interactive.
Individual Therapy
I provide a nonjudgmental space for you to make decisions to improve your personal situation. Individual therapy can include working on your relationships, deciding whether or not to end a significant relationship, coping with a breakup, healing from emotional abuse, reducing anxiety, improving your coping skills, enhancing your interpersonal communication, gaining clarity and self-awareness, overcoming your people pleasing tendencies, learning to set boundaries, managing the challenges of life, and more.
Couples Therapy
I shed light on relational dynamics and help you change or reverse your cycle of interaction in areas where you feel stuck, so that you can build a happier, healthier and more harmonious relationship together. I help couples break down the barriers that prevent them from closeness and mutual understanding. While some couples are aiming to improve their relationship, others are looking for guidance as they evaluate whether to stay together or end the relationship. Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) oriented and Gottman trained (level 1).
Coaching
Coaching is for you if you’re looking for short-term collaborative sessions to work on concrete goals with steps and strategies. While coaching will address the areas that are causing you distress in your relationships, your dating experience, your career or any other area of concern, we do not work through diagnostic mental health issues in coaching work.
Coaching can also include strategizing how to manage your relationship with (or break free from) a narcissist in your life.
