We choose our partners because the relationship brings us joy, connection, and safety. How do we maintain the good stuff as life gets more complicated? How do we recover from relationship hurts and regain the connection we desire? Whether as a couple or an individual, anxiety and fear can try to limit our choices. Worry can be difficult-to-control. A desire to avoid feeling afraid can lead to our world shrinking. Concern about the ways others evaluate us can make time with others much less satisfying. Together we can find ways to break free, claiming the life you've always wanted.
I am a licensed clinical psychologist, specializing in the delivery of time-limited, evidence-based therapies to help you experience relief from feeling of anxiety and/or to increase closeness in your romantic relationship. In order to achieve your goals we will draw on Cognitive-Behavioral (CBT) and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) strategies.
I want you to know that there is reason to be hopeful! Together we can work to build a safe space to consider the change you are looking to make. If you are interested in connecting, please do not hesitate to reach out via email or telephone.

Both Cognitive Behavioral and Attachment-Oriented therapies heavily influence my practice. CBT offers a series of strategies that may ease suffering and make it easier to live according to our values. Understanding the desire for safe, close attachment - as well as the way we respond to its absence - helps contextualize experiences of pain and the pathway we might walk to heal.
