My Ideal Client

Even when you’re together, you feel alone. You’ve started noticing little things like you don’t even sit together when watching TV. With them on the couch and you on the recliner, the distance of your coffee table seems uncrossable. Your partner’s face once filled you with confidence the way they looked at you, but now all you feel is anxious and alone. When they do look at you, it’s with polite indifference that feels like a kick to the stomach. You wonder if you’re simply too different.

How We Can Help You

You no longer look at each other with desire. Your lack of touch speaks volumes. Being rejected by the person you love hurts. It’s not too late to restore the love you once had. In the supportive space of our sessions, you’ll each learn to communicate and understand your partner’s needs. You’ll gain tools to navigate conflict while increasing your empathy and connection. You’ll gradually turn your differences into strengths. We’ll unpack your future dreams and goals.

My Approach to Helping

Don’t wait until it’s too late. Relationship problems only get worse when left untreated. When you both feel safe in the relationship, your love and affection can flow freely. With simple questions and assignments that you perform together, you’ll get to the root of what’s been impeding your connection. Restore intimacy by calling today.

Techniques I Use

Specialties

Issues I Treat

Specialties

  • Anxiety External link

    Is anxiety taking over your life? Does it feel like you can’t control it no matter how hard you try? Have you already tried therapy but found it ineffective? If this sounds like you, I’m confident I can help. My practice offers the most effective forms of treatment, to get the relief from anxiety that you deserve.

  • LGBTQ Issues External link

    Tired of the anxiety and frustration of looking for providers who don’t “understand” your perspectives and make assumptions about how your life is “supposed” to go? I provide a safe space without making assumptions about the nuances of your relationships. Your relationship boundaries and agreements are on your terms. I meet you where you are and explore your needs with you, helping you to bring harmony to your relationships.

  • Relationship / Marriage Issues External link

    Does your relationship feel like things are too good to leave, but too bad to stay? You have a good friendship with your partner, but at this point in the relationship you feel like roommates. There is nothing obviously bad about the relationship. On paper your relationship has it all. So why aren’t you happy it? When you try to communicate about your concerns, the conversation seems to go in circles for you both. Then things go back to going through the motions.

  • ADHD External link

    You can never seem to get on track. You’ve tried everything you can think of, from ideas from YouTube to suggestions from other people. The message you’re getting through life is to try harder. And just trying harder never seems to work. Whether you have ADHD or some of the traits attributed to it, trying harder isn’t going to work. What the well-meaning people who try to help don’t know is that you need to try something different.
