I offer individual and couples therapy, with a specialization in issues relating to sex, sexuality, and gender. I work with couples in diverse relationships. I am EFT-trained and work from an attachment-based model. Our behaviors and choices have meaning and purpose: in order to change what is not working, it helps to understand the often-outdated emotional logic guiding us. Together, we will work to understand underlying distressing symptoms and establish new personal and relational patterns. I aim for you to develop compassion for your hurt parts as well as challenge you to become your healthiest self.
