We help couples build person-to-person, heart-to-heart, soul-to-soul connections. We all long to be seen, heard, understood, held, and cherished by our precious person. Being in secure connection often conflicts with how life has shaped us. For many of us, relationship experiences have included bumps in the road, needs have been missed, wounds have developed, protections have grown, trust has been broken, limited beliefs have emerged, and parts of us have been hidden away. We help couples explore how life has influenced their interactions and then find lasting ways to heal, connect, repair, meet unmet needs, and build security.

The building blocks of your identity are rooted in the relational experiences you had as a child, the world you lived in, the resources available, and the challenges life sent your way. You may have learned that some emotions or needs were not acceptable or tolerable, some needs would need to be met indirectly through adaptations (such as perfectionism, people pleasing, playing small or withdrawing), or that some needs might not be met at all and would need to be abandoned or minimized. My role is to help you make sense of who you are, how you got here, your patterns of relating, and how to create the relationships you long for.

Academic burnout: where your motivation is not just on vacation – it's taken an indefinite leave of absence. Maybe you are way past the point of even humor. Are you a student, doctor, lawyer or professor working in academia or the field who is just DONE? I specialize in helping academics, intellectuals, and high-net worth individuals get their spark back. I truly understand how demotivating the systems that you operate in can be, because I have lived them myself, and because I hear stories every day that most people wouldn’t even think about sharing with anybody. Or, maybe something in your personal life is dominating your focus.
