Attachment theory is based in healing the core wound many carry into adulthood from childhood. Through a reparative experience with the right therapist, the deep longing and pain from broken attachment bonds can finally be healed!

I work to a culturally sensitive space, including work behind the scenes on myself in order to become better aware of my own privileges and assumptions. Being white, cisgender, and heterosexual, it’s definitely a work in progress!

Relational therapy focuses on the healing power of the relationship between the therapist and client; and although you may have talked with a therapist before about your anxiety, depression or other struggles, you may not have actually experienced any shifts; the distinct connection with the therapist is a very important factor in this distinction.

Do you ever feel a sudden, impending sense of doom, even though there is "nothing" to worry about? Or does it ever feel like you can't control how much you worry or think about worst case scenarios? You could be experiencing anxiety, a very common mental health struggle. Relief is on the way!

For so many of us, it can become habit to focus outside ourselves, on what others want, need, or expect from us, often unknowingly tuning out our own feelings in the process. This therapeutic work will give you the opportunity to tune in to and connect with your own feelings, instead of tuning them out and, possibly for the first time, give space for your authentic voice. Living life from this place of authenticity can feel energizing and liberating!

Do you often feel disconnected from or tired around others? This therapeutic work will give you the insight into where these feelings come from and how to finally heal. You can finally begin to feel genuinely more connected with others!
