You don’t have to figure out your relationships all by yourself.

Relationships are… everything.

They’re how we feel seen, safe, understood, loved.
Connection gives our lives meaning.
So when things feel off—it hits deep.
Maybe you’re craving closeness but keep feeling misunderstood.
Maybe you try to express your needs, but it turns into conflict—or silence.
Maybe you feel stuck in patterns you know aren’t working, but don’t know how to stop.

You might be here because……

  • You’re tired of feeling anxious or confused about your relationship

  • You don’t really know what you need—or how to get it

  • You feel guilty for having needs and want to stop second-guessing yourself

  • You’re noticing old family patterns showing up in your current relationships

  • You’re aware of the patterns you see in your family and in yourself—now you want help shifting them

This might look like…..

  • Trying to deal with a major change in a relationship and feeling overwhelmed

  • Observing dynamics in your family and in yourself that you don’t want to repeat

  • Trying to stay chill, feeling intent on meeting others’ needs while quietly building resentment

  • Avoiding conflict—or blowing up when tension builds up

  • Overthinking every text or tone of voice 

  • Finding yourself alternate between wanting to be close and wanting to be alone

  • Losing yourself in relationships… or shutting down to feel safe

You long to feel secure, connected, and true to yourself in relationships.

How therapy works

How Therapy Works

Real change doesn’t happen overnight—but it does happen.
Here’s what our work together can look like:

1. Explore where you are and how you got here.
We’ll start by getting curious about your current patterns, struggles, and feelings in relationships—without judgment.

2. Find connections between the past and the present.
Together, we’ll look at how your past experiences, family dynamics, or old beliefs might be shaping the way you relate now.

3. Decide where you want to go—and who you want to be.
This is your space to define what healthy, connected relationships look like for you. We’ll clarify what you want, what you need, and what’s been in the way.

4. Do the work.
We will work through your beliefs, thoughts, feelings, body sensations to help you begin to identify where changes can be made. Slow and steady, we go.

5. See and feel the change.
You’ll start noticing moments that feel different—more grounded, more honest, more like you. This is where the healing becomes real.

Finally, you can feel more like yourself while also feeling connected to others.

I’m really glad you found your way here.
I know how hard it can be to reach out when you’re feeling lost, stuck, or like nothing’s really working.

I’ve been there too—caught in the loop of heavy thoughts, emotions, and that voice that says, “Maybe this is just how it is and how it will be—forever.”


But here’s the thing I’ve learned: that voice isn’t telling the whole story.


Change is possible. And it doesn’t have to happen all at once to be real.

You can start feeling more calm in your relationships.
You can speak up without spiraling after.
You can stop questioning every little thing and actually trust yourself.
You can build connections that feel good.

This kind of growth takes time, but it’s so worth it.


And you don’t have to figure it out on your own—I’m here for that journey with you.

Frequently asked questions about therapy For Relationships

FAQs

  • Currently, I only work on relationship issues with individuals. If you are an individual also in couple’s therapy, I’m happy to partner with your couple’s therapist to make sure your treatment is cohesive. Or, I can make a referral to a couples’ therapist, if you need one.

  • I won’t offer advice about whether or not you should stay or go, but I will help you find your way to deciding what’s best for you.

  • That can be challenging to realize and accept, but the good news is, I’m well versed in understanding childhood trauma and the impacts on adult relationships. I can help you unpack all that and work towards healing the trauma, if and when you’re ready.

  • It happens, sometimes. I’d want to learn about what helped or didn’t help, what’s keeping you stuck. It’s possible that something more than talk therapy could help, like EMDR or IFS .
