Individual
Therapy

Psychotherapy supports adults in navigating mental health concerns, achieving relationship goals, and building habits of values-directed behavior. Sessions aim to build insight, increase psychological flexibility, and harmonize behavior with goals, values, and relational commitments.

Relational & Couple Therapy

Relational therapy helps couples and families improve communication, repair attachment bonds, and solve specific problems using evidence-based therapeutic frameworks such as integrative systemic therapy, emotionally focused therapy, and functional family therapy.

Discernment

This short-term consultation helps married couples who are uncertain about the future of their marriage gain clarity and confidence about what path to take. The "leaning-in" and "leaning-out" partners are both supported in this structured, decision-making process.

Clarity ~ Compassion ~ Curiosity. Therapy customized to your life, your values, and your commitments.

My Work

Whether in the therapy room, classroom, or research lab, my work is guided by empathy, expertise, and a commitment to each client’s goals and values.

Education

I have been teaching graduate and undergraduate courses in psychology, education, and counseling for 15+ years. I also lead workshops for mental health professionals who want to deepen their work around couple and sex therapy.

Therapy

I work with adults navigating a range of concerns—including relationship conflict, anxiety, ADHD, and sexual behavior that feels compulsive. My approach is collaborative and customized to each person's values, relationships, identity, and lived experience.

Research

In the RQ Lab, I write and conduct research with graduate students and colleagues on topics that inform clinical work, training, and teaching, specifically in the areas of relationships, sexual health, and therapy.

My Approach

I focus on identifying patterns you would like to change, while remaining sensitive to your relationships, culture, commitments, and values. My goal is to offer a personalized approach that respects who you are and where you are coming from.

Tailored Techniques

While I’ve received advanced training in approaches like acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), emotionally focused therapy (EFT) and internal family systems (IFS), I do not believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. I draw from a variety of methods to best support your unique needs and goals.

Flexible & Adaptive

Therapy should evolve with you. Whether we stick with one approach or explore others, the methods we use will always be chosen with your progress, well-being, and context in mind.

The Right Fit Matters Most

The most important part of therapy is the relationship itself. Do not be afraid to meet with different therapists to find the right fit—connection with the therapist, feeling understood, and having confidence in them matters more than the specific approach they use.

It's great you're here
