Welcome! As a relationship therapist who understands the unique challenges of our times, I offer a thoughtful, empathetic, and focused space for couples as well as individuals navigating overwhelm, anxiety, or OCD.
If your relationship feels distant or stressed, I’m here to help you and your partner repair and reconnect by transforming challenging patterns into pathways to contentment. For individuals experiencing worries, avoidance, or repetitive thoughts and behaviors, I provide practical tools and a supportive presence to help you move beyond temporary relief and achieve lasting change.
With experience across a few professional fields and two master’s degrees—the last in marriage and family therapy—I bring both depth and research to my practice. I am a pre-licensed provider under the supervision of Dave Halper, MA, LMFT, license #1644, a necessary step on the path to full licensure.
Ready to enhance your relationship or life? Schedule, email (tesni@tesnisunnetherapy.com), or call me directly (612-204-2466).
