As a licensed professional therapist with a Ph.D. in Marriage and Family Therapy, I am deeply committed to helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s challenges through a compassionate, evidence-based approach. My expertise lies in attachment theory, which allows me to help clients understand how their early relationships impact their current emotional and relational well-being. With over 15 years of experience, I specialize in relationship issues, anxiety, trauma, and stress management, working closely with clients to foster emotional healing and secure connections. In addition to attachment-based therapy, I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to guide clients in identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns. This combination empowers clients with both insight and practical tools to overcome emotional barriers, improve communication, and achieve personal growth. My approach is collaborative, non-judgmental, and tailored to each client’s unique needs. Whether you’re seeking to strengthen your relationship, address anxiety, or better understand yourself, I offer a safe space for healing and self-discovery. As both a therapist and a public speaker, I am passionate about providing clarity, guidance, and support that fosters lasting change. Choosing the right therapist is a deeply personal decision, and I am here to help you explore your goals, challenges, and strengths in a way that feels empowering. Let’s work together to create meaningful, lasting improvements in your life and relationships.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, I take a direct and action-oriented approach to set the foundation for meaningful change. My assumption is that you’ve come to therapy because you’re ready to break free from the repetitive negative patterns that have impacted your relationships and sense of self. My goal is to help you understand not only what is happening but also why, and how we can address it together. We’ll begin by exploring the challenges that brought you to therapy and discussing how these patterns of behavior have developed over time. I’ll introduce the concept that certain parts of your brain, particularly the amygdala, play a key role in driving these destructive behaviors as protective mechanisms. This understanding helps lay the groundwork for the practical skills you will learn in our sessions. I will explain how my action-oriented approach works—each week, I’ll teach you new, layered tools and techniques designed to create sustainable change in your life. A direct approach also means that you’ll have homework after each session. These assignments will help you practice and reinforce the new skills you are learning. By the end of the first session, you will have a clear understanding of my therapeutic style and what we’ll be working on together. You’ll also leave with a sense of empowerment, knowing that you’re taking the first steps toward real, transformative change in your relationships and your life.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

As a therapist, my greatest strengths lie in my direct, action-oriented approach, my deep expertise in attachment theory, and my ability to integrate evidence-based techniques, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), into the therapeutic process. I am committed to helping clients achieve real, sustainable change by addressing the underlying patterns driving their behaviors and relationships. One of my key strengths is my ability to quickly identify the root causes of emotional and relational difficulties. I use this insight to guide clients through a structured process of self-awareness, skill-building, and behavioral change. I explain complex concepts, such as how the brain’s protective mechanisms (like the amygdala) influence negative patterns, in a way that is accessible and actionable. Clients also appreciate my no-nonsense, compassionate approach. I create a safe, non-judgmental space where clients feel supported but also challenged to move beyond their comfort zones. My sessions are designed to be empowering, offering clients practical tools and weekly homework that allow them to apply what they’ve learned in real-life situations. Another strength is my adaptability—I tailor each session to meet the unique needs and goals of my clients. Whether they are seeking to improve their intimate relationships or better understand themselves, I provide guidance that is both empathetic and results-driven. This combination of empathy, clarity, and actionable strategies is what I believe sets me apart as a therapist.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I serve individuals, couples, and families who are seeking to improve their emotional well-being, relationship dynamics, and overall mental health. My primary focus is on helping clients navigate relational challenges, heal from attachment wounds, and cultivate secure connections. I work extensively with couples facing communication difficulties, trust issues, and emotional disconnection, using attachment-based therapy to foster intimacy and strengthen their bond. I also specialize in working with individuals who are struggling with anxiety, stress, or unresolved trauma. My experience with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) allows me to guide clients in identifying and reshaping negative thought patterns, enabling them to develop healthier coping mechanisms and emotional resilience. Clients who benefit most from my services are those who are ready to engage in self-reflection, open to exploring how past experiences shape their present behavior, and committed to creating positive change in their lives. Whether you are seeking to resolve relationship conflicts, address mental health concerns, or better understand your emotional patterns, I provide a supportive, collaborative space for growth and transformation. My approach is especially effective for those who value insight-driven therapy, clear communication, and practical tools for real-world application. If you’re seeking a therapist who will help you navigate life’s complexities with compassion and clarity, I am here to support you.
