Life has a way of molding us into who we've had to be instead of who we authentically are. If you grew up with emotionally immature parents, you learned early on to anticipate upset, shrink yourself, or take on responsibilities that were never yours. Now, you might find yourself stuck in old patterns—choosing relationships that feel eerily familiar, second-guessing your needs, or feeling like you’re never quite enough. I work with people who are ready to go deeper, to stop running on the autopilot of their past and start making intentional choices about how they relate to themselves and others. Therapy with me isn’t about surface-level strategies; it’s about dismantling the stories that no longer serve you and authoring your own life.

​

For couples and polycules, I help partners untangle the ways their childhood survival strategies are still running the show—how one person’s need for control collides with another’s fear of abandonment, how deeply ingrained defenses make true connection feel just out of reach. We won’t just talk about “communication skills”; we’ll look at what’s really happening beneath the surface. Relationships work best when each person is attuned to both their own emotional world and their partner’s. My job is to help you move past knee-jerk reactions and into a more conscious, intentional way of relating.

 

Whether you're LGBTQ+, engaging in ethical non-monogamy, or simply looking to move beyond traditional relationship roles, this work is about rethinking the rules and expectations you were handed and deciding, with clarity and intention, what actually fits.
