RELATIONSHIP THERAPY
BUILDING STRONGER CONNECTIONS TOGETHER
"I work with individuals and relationships of every kind: queer, straight, poly, married, and undefined. My focus is helping couples understand patterns; how you connect, what gets you stuck, and how to help you find your way back to yourselves and each other."
My Approach
No single approach fits every person or relationship, mine adapts to you. I draw from a depth psychotherapy perspective, combining training in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), ongoing studies in modern Reichian therapy, and integration of somatic awareness and expressive arts.
So much happens in the body that words alone cannot reach. Together we pay attention to breath, physical tension, and the subtle cues that live within and between us. When helpful I incorporate creative practices. I trust there is more than one way into healing.
Whether we are navigating relational conflict, identity, complex grief, trauma, or early life patterns, my aim remains: helping you create contact with yourself, and to each other.
“Love is an action. Never simply a feeling.”
