It seems like you have everything together: a job, relationships, and perhaps a partner. But underneath, something quietly hums out of tune: a restlessness you can’t quite name, an emotional distance you didn’t exactly choose, or a habit of pulling away just when something starts to matter. You may find yourself feeling ambivalent in relationships, questioning your own feelings, or carrying an old loss that’s been quietly shaping how you connect, or don't. And when life looks fine on paper but feels off in reality, that gap has a way of becoming both exhausting and surprisingly lonely.
Research suggests roughly one in four adults lean avoidant in relationships: not a flaw, but a well-worn adaptation. Drawing on relational psychodynamic, EMDR, Schema Therapy, and IFS-informed approaches, we work beneath surface patterns to soften reactivity, rebuild self-trust, and help you show up more fully in relationships and your own life.
I'm a licensed psychologist with 20 years of experience, who has done my own work and truly enjoys my profession. I remember your stories and hold your confidence with strong boundaries and warmth.
If you're ready to stop replaying the same patterns and hoping for a different ending, that's a meaningful place to start. You don't need to have your story organized or know exactly what's wrong, just a genuine curiosity about what's keeping you stuck. I'd welcome the conversation to see if we're a good fit to work together.
