My graduate training provided an evidence-based foundation in working with individuals, couples, and families across a wide range of concerns. Since licensure, I have deepened my practice in Jungian depth work, attachment theory, including level 1 Gottman training, externship-level EFT, Prepare/Enrich, and TF-CBT certification.

Most people arrive in therapy having already tried the practical fixes - new habits, better communication, positive thinking. When those work, great. When they don't, it usually means something deeper is running the show.

My work centers on uncovering the unconscious beliefs, childhood blueprints, and shadow aspects that quietly drive self-sabotage, burnout, and unfulfilling relationships. Drawing from Jungian depth psychology and informed by attachment theory, we explore what your patterns are protecting you from and what integrating those parts of yourself could free you to become.

This isn't about rehashing the past for its own sake. It's about understanding your story deeply enough to write a better one. Together, we'll move past symptom management toward a lasting, whole-self integration.
