Relationships grow. They don’t just work.

I’ve always been interested in what happens between people – the space where misunderstanding turns into resentment and understanding turns into connection.

I view couples developmentally: when stress increases and skills stay the same, conflict escalates.

That’s not a moral failure — it’s a capacity gap. Repair, regulation, and partnership are learnable skills.

I’ve trained extensively in the Developmental Model of Couples Therapy, working with sex issues, working with consensual non-monogamy, and parts work informed by Internal Family Systems. My work integrates somatic awareness, Authentic Relating, attachment theory and differentiation theory.

My sessions are experiential which means we do more than talk — we practice change in real time.

Here’s how I show up for clients.

In the room, I’m warm, grounded, prepared and direct. I normalize without minimizing and challenge without shaming.

I’m particularly attuned to emotionally under-resourced partners, especially men who were socialized out of emotional language.

Relational therapy is an investment not only in your partnership but in yourself. The skills you learn in couples therapy can translate to every relationship in your life.

Outside of sessions, I value growth, steadiness, creativity, and conversations that venture beneath the surface. Those values shape how I practice.

If you’re tired of repeating the same fight and longing to feel like partners again, I’d be honored to walk through that work with you.
