If you’re here, chances are something important doesn’t feel settled — in your relationship, in yourself, or in the way you’re navigating this stage of life.
I’m a licensed therapist specializing in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples and young adults. I work with individuals and partners who feel stuck in painful patterns, emotionally disconnected, or overwhelmed by anxiety during times of transition.
My work is grounded in attachment science and focused on helping people create relationships — with others and with themselves — that feel safer, more secure, and more responsive.
Who I Work With
I provide therapy for:
Couples experiencing emotional disconnection, recurring conflict, or difficulty communicating
Young adults navigating anxiety, identity questions, relationship struggles, or major life transitions
Individuals who feel “high-functioning” on the outside but unsettled or overwhelmed internally
Partners who want to repair trust and strengthen emotional connection, not just manage conflict
Many of the clients I work with are thoughtful, capable people who have tried to figure things out on their own — and are realizing that insight alone isn’t enough to create lasting change.
My Approach: Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
Emotionally Focused Therapy is an evidence-based, attachment-focused model of therapy that helps people understand and transform the emotional patterns that keep them stuck.
Rather than focusing only on symptoms or surface-level coping strategies, EFT helps us explore:
how emotions drive behavior and relationships
how attachment needs shape reactions during stress
how protective patterns develop when connection feels unsafe
In couples therapy, EFT focuses on identifying the negative cycle that takes over during conflict and helping partners respond to each other in new, emotionally meaningful ways.
In individual therapy with young adults, EFT helps build emotional awareness, internal security, and healthier ways of relating to others — especially during periods of uncertainty or change.
What Therapy With Me Is Like
Therapy is not about being told what to do or learning how to perform emotions “correctly.”
In our work together, we will:
slow down emotional experiences so they can be understood
make space for feelings that haven’t felt safe to express
identify patterns that no longer serve you
work toward connection that feels genuine and sustainable
My role is not to take sides or give quick fixes, but to help create a space where emotions can be explored with curiosity, compassion, and clarity.
Areas of Focus
My clinical focus includes:
Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy
Anxiety and emotional regulation
Attachment and relationship patterns
Young adulthood and identity development

Getting Started
Beginning therapy can feel vulnerable, especially if you’re unsure where to start. Whether you’re seeking couples therapy or individual support as a young adult, you don’t have to navigate this alone.
If you’re looking for a therapist who works at the level of emotion, attachment, and meaningful change, I invite you to reach out.
