What's My Approach to Therapy?
When life stops feeling the way you want it to—when there’s distance in your relationship, tension you can’t quite name, or a heaviness that follows you through the day—you start looking for something that can genuinely help. You might be carrying hurt, frustration, disappointment, or worry, or feeling like the same arguments and patterns keep showing up no matter how hard you try. If you’re reading this, it’s likely because you’re ready for things to feel different, clearer, or more connected, and you deserve a space where that’s possible.
My approach to therapy is grounded in the belief that you already have strengths, skills, and moments of resilience that can help you move forward. You may not see them right now—pain has a way of narrowing your view—but they’re there, and they matter. In our conversations, I help you slow down enough to notice what’s working, what brings meaning or hope, and what you want your life or relationship to feel like, instead of what it feels like today.
I use solution-focused therapy, a hopeful, practical, and future-oriented approach that helps you move toward what you want, rather than staying stuck in what isn’t working. You can expect me to ask thoughtful, sometimes unexpectedly powerful questions about your values, your goals, your strengths, and the small signs of progress that often go unnoticed. You’ll hear me ask things like: “What’s already helping—even a little?” or “What will be the first sign that things are shifting in the right direction?” These conversations create momentum and remind you that change doesn’t have to start big to be meaningful.
Whether we’re rebuilding trust after infidelity, restoring connection after months or years of distance, improving communication, addressing intimacy challenges, or helping you work through anxiety, grief, or major life transitions, my goal is always the same: to help you move toward a version of your life that feels more hopeful, grounded, and aligned with what you want most.
Therapy with me is collaborative, direct, and focused on what’s possible. Together, we’ll look for the exceptions, the strengths, and the moments that give clues about what can change, and then use those pieces to build something better, one conversation at a time.
