My therapeutic approach is open-hearted, practical, and highly research-based. My philosophy is one of optimistic realism.
I am determined to help people cultivate love in their lives. Whether through friendships, self-love, romance, online dating, meeting “in the wild,” or finding The One. I want to help you create a life richer in contentment and personal alignment. I offer practical and research-based relational and dating advice to all people who want to improve their relationships. The quality of one's relationships contributes enormously to one’s happiness or misery, and I want to help you feel aligned with your relational choices.
I can also help you explore any cyclical patterns that may no longer be serving you. These patterns may manifest relationally, personally, or professionally. I want to provide a space for you to explore the role and impacts they may play in your life. Ultimately, I would be honored to assist you in exploring and healing the trauma that may have created these cycles.
I am also passionate about helping people find their inner confidence and direction. I utilize a strengths-based approach to therapy and believe everyone has unique gifts. I believe that people can find greater contentment when they develop their areas of interest.
I’m originally from Nashville, Tennessee, although I’ve worked and lived in Texas, California, Pennsylvania, and China.
