At Relationships For Better, our clients are highly motivated to address long-standing patterns in their lives that inhibit them from thriving.

Do you find it difficult to say no, or have a hard time answering the question of; "who am I,"? Perhaps you find yourself very much "there for" others, but having difficulty knowing what it means to take care of yourself along the way? Often, we find ourselves in patterns of relating to others in which our own self takes a back of the bus seat, if a seat at all. I work with clients to help them notice these patterns and take steps toward a new way of living and relating.
All my clients come from very different ranges of needs. I specialize in clients who struggle with mental health and with substance abuse. A lot of clients have come back after completing treatment because they were so satisfied with the individualized treatment plan based on their needs.

I primarily work with individuals and couples who have highly stressful careers that are ready to do what's necessary to experience real and lasting change. Together we'll face what's felt too much, explore the impact and the meanings made of the past while building a future centered around freedom, fulfillment and joy.
Sometimes life can feel overwhelming, hopeless or out of control. It's not uncommon to feel empty, lost in an emotional place that seems endless and dark with no escape. Addressing difficulties in relationships, life transitions, and depression are my areas of expertise. Life should not be such a constant struggle. I am here to provide a safe space where we can work together to help you find a way out of the dark and build a path forward toward healing, balance, happiness and meaning.
