Get relief from your relationship problems by turning the chaos into harmony.
You can’t believe it happened again. After repeated assurances to your loved one, changing habits in your daily life, and promising yourself you’d be better, here you are. You sit across from your them, crying, pleading with them to forgive you after this latest outburst. The look of hurt on their face is soul-crushing. Even once they accept your apology, the guilt doesn’t subside – if anything, it gets worse. You love this person so much, but you’re not sure your relationship can handle another blow like this. You wish you had some control over your emotions, and fear it’s only a matter of time before this happens again.

Together we'll work to get your groove back and turn your misery into a meaningful relationship.
You sit on the couch, still vibrating with rage from the most recent fight with your partner. The arguments started as petty grievances and slight annoyances but grew from there. Now, every conflict feels like it may be the final nail in the coffin of this relationship. Things weren’t always this way. You remember a time when you shared flirty glances and couldn’t stand to be apart. But, over time, resentment and disappointment have replaced that joy and playfulness. You’ve started avoiding each other since it seems the only way to prevent fighting. You don’t want to give up on your relationship but don’t know how to fix it.

The first steps to beginning therapy can seem hard. I want you to have hope, that If you are feeling stuck in unhealthy feelings or thoughts or needing support through stressful life events, there are effective holistic strategies for finding relief and bringing you back into balance. Trauma, anxiety, depression, anger, grieving are all experiences of the body as much as the mind, and effective therapy should integrate both. Through a compassionate, accepting relationship and an innovative somatic approach, I have found success in guiding clients to find relief of their symptoms and struggles in their body, mind, and hearts.

You made him wear shoes, but he wants to be barefoot like The Hulk. You monster. It would be funny if it weren’t so frustrating. These tantrums are happening with greater frequency.

While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
