Connecting Hearts

Connections & Relationships

Connections are the key to life. At our most primary level, humans are wired for connection. I specialize in working on these connections and relationships through individual, couples or family work. I want to connect with you to help you feel comfortable & ready to begin working toward healing. Together, we will create a safe place to help you understand why you do the things you do and empower you to find new ways to build resilience to cope, communicate or connect with others.

Does any of this sound familiar?

  • Are you or your family struggling during this unprecedented pandemic?

  • Have you been experiencing an increase in anxiety or depression trying to adjust to a more socially distanced world?

  • Is your child or adolescent struggling with how to express their emotions?

  • Even without the pandemic, have you been feeling disconnected or like you could benefit from talking to someone about what you’ve been thinking, feeling or experiencing?

Then I might be the right fit for you!
