Something feels off.

A relationship isn’t working the way it used to, you’re life is in transition and you're not sure who you are anymore. You’ve been holding things together for so long that it’s starting to feel heavy. I help individuals and couples slow things down, talk honestly about what’s happening, and make sense of what’s getting in the way. Sometimes that means untangling old patterns or past experiences; other times it’s about figuring out what you want now and how to move toward it. The work is steady, practical, and grounded in your real life — helping you move forward in a way that actually fits.My approach draws from the Gottman Method, Relational Life Therapy, and EMDR, combining practical tools with deeper healing when old experiences are still shaping the present.
