relationship therapy in asheville
before i became a therapist, i came to therapy because i felt stuck. i was struggling in my parenting, my work, and in the goals my spouse and i shared. i knew something needed to change, but i couldn't figure out how to move forward.
through both personal and professional experience, i've come to understand how attachment wounds, family dynamics, and past experiences shape the way we relate to ourselves and the people we love. that understanding became the foundation of my work as a therapist.
today, i help people build healthier relationships, set clearer boundaries, and create lives that feel more connected, intentional, and aligned with who they want to be.
therapy for relationship patterns, boundaries, and codependency
many of the people i work with are thoughtful, caring, and deeply attuned to others. they are often the ones holding everything together in their families, relationships, or workplaces.
you may feel responsible for other people's emotions, struggle to set boundaries, replay conversations long after they end, or find yourself waiting for someone else to change before you can feel better.
therapy can help you understand these patterns, loosen the grip of guilt and resentment, and develop relationships that feel more balanced and sustainable. together, we work toward healthier boundaries, greater self-trust, and a stronger sense of agency in your life.
attachment-based therapy in asheville
sometimes insight alone isn't enough. you understand why you do what you do, but still find yourself repeating the same patterns.
using an attachment based and trauma informed approach, i help clients connect the dots between past experiences and present relationships. our work focuses on turning awareness into meaningful change so your relationships feel more mutual, your decisions feel clearer, and your life feels more like your own.
therapy for parents of teens and young adults
parenting older children can bring challenges many people don't expect. as your child becomes more independent, the relationship changes, and it can be difficult to know how to stay connected while still providing guidance and support.
many parents come to therapy feeling frustrated, disconnected, or unsure how to respond in ways that reflect the kind of parent they want to be.
together, we'll work on understanding what's happening beneath the surface, staying grounded during difficult moments, and strengthening connection without sacrificing boundaries. the goal isn't perfect parenting. it's building a relationship that feels more steady, respectful, and authentic over time.
my clients ask:
why do i feel responsible for how everyone else is doing?
can i repair my relationship with my kids?
how do i set boundaries without everything blowing up
i know my patterns, so why can’t i change them?
is there more to life than this
how do i know if i’m the problem?
