I’m not here to just smile and nod...
I’m here to help you actually change what’s not working.

I am laid, back but direct, we’ll have real conversations that actually matter and help you move forward. 

I have dedicated my entire practice to working with couples and I know sitting in silence does not help you change.

I am not afraid to tell you what I see..

I’ll notice patterns, the ones that keep you stuck, and name them in real time, with care and clarity.

Sometimes that means hearing things that sting a little before they help. But that’s where change starts: in the truth, not the comfort zone.
​

I have dedicated my practice to helping couples find their way back to each other is what I’m best at. I use real, science-backed approaches of Emotionally Focused Therapy and the Gottman Method to help you actually get out of the loop. 

I do not just have specialized training in the areas i treat, I am an Active member of the communities i support  

 I know first hand how hard it is to find a therapist "who gets it". I have lived experience in the polyamory, queer, and furry communities.

i get it
