Are you hoping to achieve more intimacy and caring in your relationship? Is it important to you to understand and be understood? To hear and be heard? Whether you come in by yourself, or with your partner, you can learn the tools of better communication.You can learn how to maintain emotional strength and stability in the midst of open and honest discussion, leading you to the relationship of your deepest desires. I work with clients of all ethnicities and sexual orientations.
My specialty is couples and I've trained with The Couples Institute in California. Their Developmental Model helps reduce the anxiety of conflict. Communicate better - love better. I've also trained with Martha Kauppi to enhance communication about sexuality. Identifying and sharing your hopes is the beginning of change!
I've worked with a wide variety of people, from city core seniors to women seeking reproductive health services. Social justice is the backbone of my practice and I aspire to treat you with the compassion and sensitivity deserved, due to the trust you have put in me.
