If you're here, something isn't working and you're tired of it.

Maybe you've tried to talk about it.

Read the books.

Had the insights.

And still, when it matters most, the same patterns show up.

You might be here because…

You love your partner, but you can’t seem to reach each other

You keep having the same conflict, no matter what the topic is

You’re the one everyone relies on, but you feel alone underneath it

You understand your patterns intellectually, but in real moments they still take over

You feel stuck between “I love them” and “I don’t know if I can keep doing this”

You’re tired of holding it all together and want something deeper and more real

Most people who come here are not lacking insight.

They’re stuck in emotional and relational patterns that take over when something important is at stake.

What looks like conflict, shutdown, or distance is often protection. Protection around something more vulnerable, more human, and more important.

I don’t believe healing comes from being told what to do.
I believe it comes from learning how to understand and stay with your own experience.

When those patterns are slowed down and understood, you begin to experience yourself differently, and your relationships begin to shift.

You won’t be doing that alone.
We’ll be in it together, paying attention to what’s happening as it unfolds.

My Approach

This is not just about talking through problems or learning communication techniques.

In our work, we slow things down in real time so you can begin to notice what is happening inside you, in your body, and in your relationships.

Together, we make sense of the patterns that keep repeating.

We slow down enough to feel what's underneath them.

And from there, something different can start to happen.

This isn't the kind of therapy where I hand you a worksheet or a quick solution. It's the kind where we stay with what's actually happening, inside you and between us, in real time.

I will guide you through this process and stay with you in the hard parts. I won't rush you, and I won't leave you alone in it.

This is work I believe in. Not just as a clinician,
but as someone who knows what it's like to understand yourself
and still find the same patterns waiting.

I don’t just understand the people I work with.
I stay with them until something real starts to come into focus.

I want you to feel that. Not as a technique, but as something real. When you're on the other side of the screen, I am fully with you. That kind of attention is not small. It is safety. It is connection. It is part of how healing actually happens.

This work may be a good fit for you if:

• You’re willing to look honestly at yourself, not just your partner
• You want more than surface-level solutions
• You’re open to exploring your emotions, even if it feels unfamiliar
• You’re ready for something to shift

This may not be the right fit if:

• You’re looking for quick tips without deeper exploration
• You want someone to fix the other person
• There is ongoing violence, coercion, or untreated addiction
• You are in need of crisis or emergency services

Ways to Work Together

There are a few different ways we can do this work, depending on what you’re needing

Logistics

Sessions are held virtually Monday–Wednesday, through a secure telehealth platform.

I work with adults (18+) and couples located in Missouri.

I typically meet with clients weekly or biweekly to support consistency and momentum in the work.

Intensives are scheduled separately, often on Thursdays, and may include extended or multi-hour sessions.

What Happens Next

Starting therapy can feel like a big step.

Here’s what it looks like:

1. You reach out through the contact form or scheduling link
2. We schedule an initial consultation or first session
3. We get a sense of what’s going on and what you’re needing
4. We decide together whether this feels like a good fit

You don’t have to know everything right now. You just have to begin.

If you’re ready for honest, steady, relational work,
I would be honored to meet you.
