However you got here, and for whatever the reason, thank you. Thank you for taking time out of your life and your world to be here and learn more about me.
I’m an individual and couples therapist, and a relationship and lifestyle design coach. I’ve been working with people, helping them heal, guiding them toward growth and full, authentic living and writing about doing so for the last 15 years. I literally cannot do anything else. Someone once asked me, “so, do you like, psychoanalyze people all of the time?” Yes. Yes I do. I love it. And I don’t do it from a place of judgement. I’m in curiosity mode nearly every second of the day.
I’m fueled by a deep desire of wonder. Wondering how we got where we are. Wondering how it aligns with who we are and what we’re supposed to be doing. Wondering how to make it better. I’m motivated by love and I’m a seeker of all things inspiring, whether that be a color palette, an author, an interview with an expert on a podcast, a quote, nature, photography, design, anything. Wonderment, love and inspiration. This is what I bring to you, along with my stories, all of the ones that have shaped and continuously shift me.
I’m also a mom to three children with whom I’m connected on an effervescent and syncopated level. And, I’m a wife to a husband with whom I’m always learning from and growing with, for the past 23 years. We met in undergrad at DePaul University in Chicago when we were babies and we’ve been lucky enough to have created a space we always come back to, called home. Together, we live in the suburbs of Chicago with our two dogs, Chloe + Maxx, a Russian tortoise called Sammy, Kevin the axolotl, a couple of goldfish deemed Bonnie and Clyde and we’re constantly adding more!
