Services & Pricing

Perhaps you’ve experienced difficult dynamics in your family of origin, or you’re currently navigating a romantic relationship that feels unhealthy or emotionally immature. You may be on the receiving end of narcissistic abuse, or dealing with someone who exhibits emotional immaturity, leaving you feeling lost, reactive or overwhelmed. Maybe you’ve tried to set boundaries, but find yourself slipping back into familiar patterns of people-pleasing or codependency.

I specialize in helping individuals like you navigate the complexities of dysfunctional family dynamics and relationship challenges, particularly those involving narcissism or emotional immaturity. Through tools like existential therapy, family systems theory and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I help clients build healthier boundaries, regain control over their emotional responses and develop resilience. Together, we’ll work to heal past traumas, manage emotional flashbacks and break free from reactive cycles. My goal is to guide you towards a place of inner clarity, emotional regulation and personal empowerment.

I also offer support for couples using the Gottman Method, helping partners deepen their emotional connection and navigate issues that may have roots in early childhood experiences or past traumas. Whether you’re struggling with communication or emotional intimacy, my approach integrates insights from both individual and relational therapy.

For those seeking to optimize their life and productivity, I provide coaching to help you create balance between work and personal life, supporting your goals in health, relationships and personal growth. Together, we’ll implement effective strategies to help you live a more fulfilled and integrated life.
