Breakthroughs Happen Here

This Isn’t Just Therapy—It’s a Wake-Up Call

If you’re here, you’re probably not interested in surface-level change. You’re done pretending things are “fine” when they’re clearly not.
You’re over the advice that sounds good on paper but collapses in real life. And you’re tired of being stuck in the same patterns—whether it’s in your parenting, your marriage, or just inside your own damn head.

I get it. Because I’ve worked with people who’ve hit that same wall.
And I’ve helped them punch through it.

I’m a marriage and family therapist who doesn’t treat people like walking diagnoses. I treat the system they’re stuck in—internally and relationally. Because let’s be honest: most of your problems don’t come from nowhere. They come from how you were shaped, what you absorbed, and the patterns you’ve been repeating without even realizing it. This is the work of real transformation—not just fixing symptoms, but changing the system that keeps creating them.

I help people:

  • Break toxic family cycles without burning bridges

  • Stop overfunctioning in relationships and start reclaiming personal power

  • Rebuild marriages with clarity, not codependency

  • Parent with leadership instead of reactivity

  • And most importantly—develop an identity that isn’t built on survival, but self-respect
