Bridge To Relationship
A therapeutic bridge to healing, improved relationships, and how you want to be.
My Approach
I am passionate about relationships and helping people heal and improve their most important relationships: including with their partners, their children/parents, and themselves. I provide another set of eyes and an array of tools to help you uncover your blindspots, find the courage to change, heal old wounds that are limiting you, and improve your relationships. I do this through thoughtful questions, gentle suggestions, a lot of encouragement, and employing various integrated therapeutic techniques such as CBT, EMDR, somatic, mindfulness practices, and more. Additionally, I have training and experience in Trauma Informed Parenting, Developmental Trauma, Mediation, Meditation, the Nurtured Heart Approach, and more.

As a parent, a partner, a successful entrepreneur/business owner, a holder of four degrees, and decades of life experience, I bring a deep wealth of knowledge and intuition to our time together.
1.
Individual
Therapy
We all experience trauma, grief, and loss, and we're all on some mental health spectrum. Healing is possible. You deserve to be heard and seen.
This is your time, one of your safest spaces, with no judgment.​ Some people prefer an active/directive approach and others prefer a softer/passive approach. I will use my intuition and open communication to tailor my approach to meet your needs.
2.
Couples
Counseling
Relationships are a complex and captivating dance, and sometimes we just keep stepping on each other’s toes. Your primary relationship has broken down and the damage accruing in the wake is heartbreaking. What changed, why, and is it even worth it anymore? What are the patterns you might be blind to? Why do other couples seem so in sync? We will focus on various practices and building trust to get you back to that beautiful dance.
3.
Parenting
Coaching
First of all, you are already doing better than you think!
Are you filled with worry, misery, and doubts (WMDs)? Is your child out of control or struggling with self-esteem, academics, siblings, house rules? Have you read the books and tried the things and issues are not getting better, in fact, are they getting worse the harder you try?! Let's dive into strategies that can transform your child and yourself.
4.
Family
Therapy
You've lost the fun in dysfunctional. The system isn't working for all its members. Let’s work together to give you and your family tools and solutions that work for everyone. Do you feel like you are accidentally making things worse? Do you have a child in crisis? Is your family going through a challenging transition? Are parents not on the same page with discipline? Are you having trouble communicating with your teen? Or with your parents?
