Therapists » Marriage & Family Therapist Associate
Hello and welcome! My work is focused on helping clients strengthen any number of dimensions in their relationships, including emotional connection, safety and intimacy, communication, conflict resolution, self- and other-confidence, trust building and repair from infidelity. I am trained in systems theory, which means I approach therapeutic work through the context of your relational systems, interactions, and feedback loops that create and perpetuate the problems, patterns, and behaviors clients are seeking to resolve. This often translates to facilitating change within the system in contrast to only within the individual. View 4 Photos My academic background is complemented by practical experience working directly with people of diverse backgrounds and relationship challenges. My style is fundamentally holistic and empathetic, direct and honest, and focused on your needs and wants. I work to gain understanding of you/your needs in context of your family, and/or your partnership(s). I care deeply for your overall well-being and I work to ensure you know this and feel cared for throughout our work together. I work with individuals, couples, and multiple-partner constellations. I have specialized experience working with people in the LGBTQIA+, Armed Forces, and Veteran communities. I look forward to working with you, too!
