Love Confidently.

I’m here as your attachment guide, helping you gain insight into your relationship patterns and learn actionable skills to develop a more secure style of relating

Do These Feel Familiar?

  • You find yourself drawn to partners who are emotionally unavailable, even though you want connection.

  • You’ve recently suffered breakups, divorce, or relationships that felt “doomed” from the start.

  • You feel drained, anxious, or shut down when conflict or emotional intensity arises.

  • You want closeness, but worry about feeling trapped, smothered, or overwhelmed by a partner’s needs.

  • You notice jealousy, insecurity, or fear of infidelity creeping in, leaving you hypervigilant.

  • You find dating apps exhausting, frustrating, or superficial, and struggle to make meaningful connections.

  • You worry your needs are “too much” or fear being “too much” for someone you love.

  • You see the same struggles from past relationships repeating and wonder if you’ll ever break the cycle.

Why Work With Me?

Helping adults build secure, fulfilling relationships has been at the heart of my clinical and research work for many years. I have extensive training in attachment theory and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and my doctoral research focused on attachment in adult relationships. I designed and led a psychoeducational program to support adults in developing a more secure attachment style.

​

In working with me, you will:

  • Gain clarity about your relationship and attachment patterns

  • Understand how your family history shapes your current relationship challenges

  • Strengthen emotional regulation to respond rather than react in conflict

  • Develop communication skills and learn to express your needs effectively

  • Learn practical tools and strategies to cultivate secure, fulfilling connections

  • Learn how to be naturally drawn to and attracted to partners who are secure

  • Move toward greater emotional security, resilience, and confidence in love
