Relationship & Interpersonal Issues

Strengthen Communication. Set Healthier Boundaries. Build More Fulfilling Connections.

Relationships shape every area of our lives—whether with a partner, family member, friend, colleague, or boss. When these connections are strained, it can leave us feeling stuck, misunderstood, or emotionally exhausted.You might find yourself repeating the same arguments, avoiding confrontation altogether, or struggling to get your needs met without guilt or fear. These patterns often stem from deeper emotional dynamics—past attachment wounds, unresolved resentment, low self-esteem, or difficulty regulating emotions in the moment.

Therapy can help you understand and shift these patterns. Whether you’re navigating a challenging relationship, healing from a breakup, managing family tension, or trying to develop stronger emotional boundaries, our work together can support you in building the clarity and confidence needed for healthier interactions.

My approach integrates psychodynamic insight, mindfulness-based skills training, and emotionally focused strategies to help you:

Relationship issues don’t just “work themselves out.” Whether the challenges stem from your current relationships or long-standing interpersonal habits, therapy offers a safe space to understand what’s happening—and to practice more effective, authentic ways of relating to others.

You don’t have to stay stuck in the same frustrating patterns. Therapy can help you break the cycle, strengthen your relationships, and feel more in control of how you connect with others. The first step is often the hardest—but it’s also the one that can open the door to real change.

I combine effective therapeutic approaches with a warm, collaborative style to help you navigate challenges and build a greater sense of clarity, balance, and well-being.
