I am a grounded, real, down-to-earth, passionate therapist who loves working with couples and thrives in hard conversations. I love the creativity of couples therapy and  role play, and I will be in it with you. I provide a fresh, unbiased perspective and the opportunity to have the hard conversations in a productive way. 

I have a big capacity in my nervous system to hold a lot of emotions and intensity, so bring your whole self to my office.

I infuse connection to each other in the present moment into my work. We won't just be talking abstractly, I will have you gaze into each other's eyes, move around, touch, take time-outs, and try new ways of relating in real-time. 

I use the Psychobiological Approach to Couples Therapy (PACT) in my work because PACT changed my life. PACT is based on principles of fairness and justice, and requires partners to grow up and create a unique relationship that actually works for both of them. 

Working with me you can expect to:

-Learn what works and what will never work to get the love you want

-Develop a clear roadmap of how to get from infidelity crisis to love that lasts

-Understand your partner’s operating manual: how to soothe, move, and support them.

-Receive in-the-moment coaching in pro-relationship collaboration, rather than destructive fighting
