Certified Emotionally Focused Therapist and SupervisorCalifornia License MFT 35584

I specialize in helping couples find their way through conflict and disconnection to a closer, more secure relationship. For more than 30 years, I’ve worked with couples and individuals in the South Bay. As a Certified Emotionally Focused Therapist and Supervisor, I bring extensive experience to understanding what happens when the relationship you count on becomes a source of pain.

Often, couples come to me loving each other but feeling unable to get through to one another. Attempts to talk end in arguments, defensiveness, or silence. I help you slow down these moments and understand the hurt, fears, and needs beneath them. Together, we work toward conversations where you can share what matters, feel heard, and begin to trust that your partner can be there for you.

My style is warm, engaged, and collaborative. I work to help both partners feel understood while actively guiding you through the places where you get stuck. The work goes beyond resolving an argument to strengthening the connection that helps you face life together. That same attention to emotions and relationships informs my work with individual adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief, and life transitions.
