I believe therapy is not about telling a stranger all your problems, but sharing your pain, triumphs and laughter with someone who you connect and feel comfortable with, but also with someone who can provide a nonjudgmental space to help you sort through it all.

I have been gracious to have experience in many different fields of wellness and mental health to develop a systemic perspective on healing. I believe that relationships with others is the key to healing and growing.

I created Relational Balance as a way for couples to grow together in a world that continually tries to draw them apart. When we are working together, I hope to help my clients grow in their relationship and create a new, healthy experience together.

Compassion and humor are found at my core and I share these with all my clients. My down-to-earth approach to life allows me to develop real connections with my clients. My number one goal as a therapist is create a laid-back environment for my clients to explore their relationships in comfortably.

My therapy is strength-based, focusing on repairing communicating, increasing physical and emotional connection, and repairing past wounds. I have completed Level 1 Training in The Gottman Method and often utilize Gottman principles in my practice.

My greatest hope, is that by working together, you will feel secure, validated, and empowered to create the life in which feels authentic to you.

Personal Background

In my free time I enjoy time laughing with my husband and family. I have two dogs that have loads of personality who also enjoy cuddling up and watching football with me on the weekends.
