Counseling Services
Where expertise meets empathy. Building tools for lasting change.
My approach to therapy is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps you understand the relationship between your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. I believe that what we do shapes how we feel and think. Change often requires trying new things, and I encourage clients to take steps outside their comfort zones. Real progress happens when you're willing to put in the work both in and outside of our sessions.
I provide actionable strategies to help you grow in areas such as self-esteem, relationship dynamics, emotion management, insight development, and breaking free from unhelpful thought patterns. These practices are tailored to help you build the tools you need for lasting, positive change.
Individual Counseling
Life brings its share of challenges—having the right tools can make all the difference. In individual counseling, we create a space where you can explore what matters most and develop the toolbox you need to move forward as your best self. Whether you're navigating stress and worry, relationship challenges, feeling down or depressed, experiencing self-doubt, or just looking to embrace personal growth, our work is rooted in empowering you to take meaningful action in your life.
True change begins with understanding yourself better—identifying where you are, where you want to be, and then developing the tools needed for the journey ahead. We’ll work on practical strategies that build resilience, expand your capacity, promote insight, and help you thrive in the face of life’s challenges. My approach is collaborative: you are the expert on your life, and I’m here to guide you.
Individual counseling provides a safe space to reflect, gain clarity, and take actionable steps toward living a more fulfilled life. Together, we’ll address what's holding you back, explore new perspectives, and empower you to move forward with confidence and purpose.
Couples Counseling
Every relationship has its ups, downs, and unexpected challenges. When communication breaks down or conflict feels unresolvable, it can create distance and frustration. In couples counseling, we work together to strengthen your connection, improve communication, and navigate challenges in a way that supports the health and growth of both partners. Whether you're facing specific issues like trust, intimacy, or resentment, or simply want to deepen your understanding and bond with each other, counseling provides a safe, supportive space to establish or reinvigorate communication and connection.
At the heart of my approach is the belief that every couple evolves. We can't help but grow, learn, and change as we move through life. As a bonded unit, it's essential to check in periodically to ensure you're evolving and growing together. This may involve realigning or updating values and beliefs in the relationship, developing skills for more effective communication, adjusting how you manage conflict, learning how to co-parent, or navigating boundaries with the in-laws. Through practical tools and strategies, we’ll focus on increasing understanding, reducing friction, and amplifying the strengths of your relationship.
Couples counseling is not a last-ditch effort to save a relationship. It’s an intentional choice to build, grow, connect, and look forward. It offers a space to explore where you are, address challenges, and develop the skills needed to reach your goals—together.
Note: To support the best outcomes, all couples counseling requires both individual and couples sessions.
Family Counseling
Family relationships can be a major source of both support and stress, especially when changes happen, challenges arise, or misunderstandings occur. Whether you’re navigating generational differences, managing sibling conflict, or adjusting to a new family dynamic, family counseling can help you strengthen bonds, improve communication, and make Thanksgiving a little better this year.
In family counseling, we create a space for open, honest conversation where everyone’s voice is heard and respected. Together, we’ll explore the patterns that impact your relationships and work on practical strategies to improve understanding and reduce friction. Whether you’re facing a specific issue or simply looking to improve connection in the family, I’m here to guide you through the process.
My approach is grounded in the belief that families are systems—interconnected webs where each person’s actions, feelings, and choices impact the whole. We’ll take time to examine these relationships, the roles we tend to fall into, and the family stories we hold. From there, we’ll develop the tools needed to move forward, whether that’s improving communication, setting healthy boundaries, addressing old resentments, resolving conflicts, or learning how to support each other in new ways.
Family counseling is about nurturing connection, enhancing communication, and building stronger bonds within the family unit. Together, we’ll work toward resolving conflicts, strengthening relationships, and creating a supportive environment where each person feels heard, valued, and understood.
Note: To support the best outcomes, it’s common to leverage separate sessions with particular family members or individual sessions to focus on specific areas of opportunity.
