Good therapy is built on a real relationship — one where you feel genuinely heard, not judged. My approach is direct and collaborative, which means we won't just talk about what's happening; we'll actively work to change it. Sessions are grounded in Relational Life Therapy, an evidence-based model that focuses on how early experiences shape the way we show up in our closest relationships, and what it takes to shift those patterns for good. Whether you're coming as a couple or on your own, you can expect honesty, warmth, and a clear sense of direction. This isn't about processing indefinitely — it's about building something better.
Relationship Therapy (Couples and Individuals)
Relationships are rarely derailed by a single argument or moment — it's usually the patterns underneath that wear us down. Whether you're navigating ongoing conflict, emotional distance, or a sense that you keep having the same fight in different forms, therapy offers a space to slow down and understand what's actually happening between you. Together, we'll look at the survival strategies each of you brings to the relationship, build greater accountability, and develop practical tools for relating in ways that feel safer and more connected.
Individual Therapy
Individual therapy here is always relational at its core. Whether you're working through a shift in your identity, struggling with patterns that show up in your relationships, or trying to manage the stress of illness or caregiving, individual sessions offer space to develop deeper self-awareness and more intentional ways of relating to the people in your life. Insight alone isn't the goal — we work toward real, lasting change in how you show up for yourself and others.
Working with the Masculine
Many men and masculine-identified clients come to therapy carrying pressure they've never had language for, the weight of being useful, of holding it together, of not quite knowing how to be fully known. This work makes room for what usually stays hidden: shame, anger, emotional constriction, and the instinct to withdraw when things get hard. Rather than treating these as flaws to fix, we look at where they came from and what it would take to move through the world with more range, more access to closeness, vulnerability, and voice.
Chronic Illness & Relationships
Illness doesn't stay contained to the body; it moves through a relationship, reorganizing intimacy, dignity, caregiving, sexuality, freedom, and mutuality, often all at once. For couples and individuals navigating a diagnosis, caregiving strain, or the prolonged stress of managing health together, therapy offers a space to name what's shifted, grieve what's been lost, and find new ways to stay connected, honest, and whole inside the changes illness brings.
Anger and High-Conflict Dynamics
Anger in relationships is rarely just about the moment it erupts. It's usually carrying something — unmet needs, hurt that hasn't been heard, or limits that have been crossed one too many times. Rather than treating anger as the problem to be managed, therapy here helps you understand what's driving it and how to express what you need in ways that actually bring you closer to resolution. This work is for couples and individuals who feel stuck in cycles of reactivity and want a more effective way forward.
