Improving relational understanding and functioning improves our well-being. Sometimes that means moving closer to people. Sometimes it means distancing ourselves. Our relationship supports you to study and improve the relationships in your life.

Relationships can be so tricky because the complex system of one person meets another complex system. Relationships offer the hope of feeling seen and understood. I can support your goals for increased connection along with the freedom to be yourself.
Many people have undergone trauma and don't realize its impact on their lives. PTSD symptoms can include fear, worry, conflict, self-loathing and shame. Let me help you get to the bottom of what you have experienced so you can feel more free.
Life can be traumatic. Our brains are structured in relationship. My ongoing training means I work hard to understand the way your brain is uniquely wired. I empower you to approach your anxiety with curiosity so you can pursue the life you dream about.
