I am a relational therapist and owner of Life Transitions Counseling, PLLC. We specialize in helping individuals and couples who are having relational issues in their lives. Sometimes these issues are repetitive like continuing to attract the wrong partners or friends, and sometimes they are time limited like going through a divorce and it’s aftermath. Often, it’s a matter of looking at the communication style as well as our attachment style we are familiar with and how that effects our relationships with others. We offer a warm, interactive environment to explore client’s need to have more satisfying relationships in their lives.
Our specialty is working with clients who have issues related to relational repetitions, poor conflict/communication skills, divorce and its aftermath as well as emotional abuse, co-dependency and self esteem issues. We specialize in helping clients understand relational patterns that keep them from satisfying connections and creating new relational norms.
We've all experienced pain, loss, or disappointment in our lives. However, we don't have to be stuck in it. Clients bring to us a determination that when combined with a safe therapeutic environment creates remarkable transformations. Life Transitions provides clients with experienced relational therapists who believe in the power of therapy & growth.
