A Relational Approach to Healing, Informed by Narrative Ideas & Mindful Self-Compassion
I work collaboratively with individuals, couples, and families navigating life transitions, anxiety, relationship challenges, and the weight of larger systemic concerns, including climate grief. Whether you're seeking to strengthen a partnership, move through a difficult life transition, or help your family navigate change, we'll explore how these experiences shape the stories you carry and the ways you relate to one another. Together, we'll untangle unhelpful patterns, deepen understanding, and create a steadier, more grounded way of moving forward.
My Practice is Informed by These Relational and Systemic Frameworks
Narrative Therapy
A respectful narrative approach that views individuals as separate from their problems. We work together to externalize challenges and re-author your story toward your true values and strengths.
Relational Therapy
Relational therapy is built on the truth that we do not live, struggle, or heal in isolation—our well-being is entirely connected to our relationships. Rather than viewing distress as an individual flaw, this approach looks at the invisible patterns and generational scripts playing out between you and your loved ones.
Mindful Self-Compassion
Our sessions incorporate principles of mindful self-compassion, combining gentle mindfulness with the active emotional support of self-kindness. Together, we learn to meet challenges and suffering with the same warmth and care you would naturally offer a dear friend.
Individual Therapy
Your life is shaped by the stories you tell about yourself, but you are the author, not the struggle. Together, we’ll gently separate who you are from old stories of anxiety or self-doubt, notice the strengths those stories leave out, and meet yourself with more compassion as you write what comes next.
Re-Authoring Your Story

Couples Therapy
Relationships thrive when partners stop treating each other as the enemy and start seeing the patterns that keep them stuck. Together, we’ll map out those loops, explore what each of you brings to the conflict, and shift from blame toward understanding. From there, you can rewrite a shared story of trust and deeper connection.
Family Therapy
Every family has a complex history, but one conflict or crisis doesn’t have to define who you are together. We’ll look at how each person’s ways of coping collide under stress, quiet the blame so everyone can feel heard, and help your family step out of old patterns to write a more connected story.
