A trauma- informed, relationship-focused coach and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I help people understand how they show up in relationships so they can build connections that feel safer, clearer, and more aligned with who they actually are.

My work is grounded in the belief that most relationship struggles aren’t about being broken — they’re about patterns we learned for good reasons that no longer serve us. Working with me is a space to explore those patterns without shame. We focus on communication, boundaries, emotional safety, and translating insight into practical change.

Sessions are collaborative and steady. Some moments are reflective; others are skill-based. You don’t need perfect words or a clear plan to start — my role is to help you make sense of what you’re feeling and support growth at a pace that feels grounded.

I’m especially drawn to working with people recovering from emotionally invalidating relationships, navigating transitions, or reconnecting with themselves after losing their voice in connection with others.

Outside of sessions, I’m a parent who values authenticity and emotional safety in everyday life. I recharge by being outdoors and making time for creative outlets — both help me stay grounded and present. That perspective shapes how I work: human, steady, and focused on helping people grow without losing themselves in the process.
