You’re a high achiever, driven and focused, but when it comes to managing your relationship with your partner you're feeling lost and overwhelmed.  Ever since you've had kids you don't really recognize yourself; and you and your partner feel more like roommates than romantic partners.   The fighting between you and your partner has become so unbearable that you just shut down to avoid another argument.  You know that you both are stuck in relationship patterns that just don’t work, but you don't know how to make things better. 

​

Your self doubt is all consuming...making you feel mom guilt, postpartum anxiety, or stuck in a sticky conflict cycle with your partner. You're irritable, frustrated, and you hate hearing yourself nag...plus you're recognizing patterns from your own mom that you don't want to repeat.  

 

You’ve tried all the social media tips, read all the blogs, but you still feel like you’re just surviving instead of thriving. ​​

​

You're ready to get started

​​​​​​​​​

Whether you’re navigating the daily grind of motherhood, anxiety, or feeling disconnected in your relationship, I'll help you start to dig deeper to understand the unhelpful cycle so you can start to make sustainable changes.  As a twin mom and wife, I truly get the unique challenges of balancing your responsibilities of parenthood and life, while still trying to find time to invest in yourself and in your relationship.  I understand the emotional toll that parenthood can take on you and your relationships.

 

Together in couples therapy, we'll pinpoint those sticky moments you're stuck in with your partner and work on improving communication and connection both in session and at home. ​​​Therapy for women and moms is also a big part of my work; so I'll help you on setting (and holding) healthy boundaries, improving communication skills, or learning how to take time for you so you can show up as the person you want to be. Together, we’ll help you build a healthier relationship with yourself and your partner that aligns with your values and goals.

My therapeutic style

 

I'll be compassionate and non-judgmental, but I'm not afraid to be honest and tell you how it is. I'll help you develop practical and solution focused steps while identifying unhelpful patterns from your past to help you move towards balance and personal wholeness.   

 

Clients work with me because:

​

✓ They want a therapist who isn't afraid to say the hard things 

✓ They're looking for a therapist to push them so they can work towards a relationship that they want. 

✓ They don't want to hold anything back so we can dive right in and do the work to move towards a values-driven life.​

​

My commitment to you is to be empathetic, non-judgmental, and I'll always be real with you. ​

​

In our sessions, we'll map out actionable steps to help you feel more confident and strong, whether that's in your relationship, anxiety, or in your journey as a parent. Think of our time together as a heart-to-heart with someone you can be real with, combined with professional guidance to help you navigate the tough stuff.

 

My goal is to empower you to make real, meaningful changes that fit into your real life—not just talking but doing, learning, and growing.
