Couples Counseling Therapists in Arden-Arcade, Sacramento, CA

You’re so ready for change but feeling nervous and lost on where to start. Your relationship feels lonely, empty, or passionless – you’re carrying unspoken hurts and the load has gotten too heavy. You want security, desire, comfort, and hope in your relationship ! Maybe you’re grieving the loss of a relationship , phase in your life, or part of your identity. You need a safe, nonjudgmental space to navigate the tangle of sadness, confusion, frustration, and fear. Maybe you’re realizing it’s time to process and come to terms with your past, embrace authenticity and begin building a life more true to who you are.

The therapeutic journey begins internally by listening to the heart when it tells us there is a need for change in our lives. Second is having the courage to admit when we need outside support to begin this change, and finally being bold enough to use our voices to seek out the assistance of a therapist. Therapy with the right therapist can be helpful to everyone. my preferred theoretical approach is client-centered. A client-centered therapeutic approach allows me to meet my clients where they are at and together develop the appropriate path forward. Other theoretical approaches include; CBT, DBT, experiential, & psychodynamic.

I work with individuals and couples who are motivated to begin the process of change. Growth can be vulnerable; I provide a safe environment for couples struggling to connect, to feel heard, who are looking to repair after after conflict and feel connected again. Drawing the "big ideas" from popular couples therapy modalities, I help couples de-escalate, build trust, reflect their partner 's concerns and resolve difficult patterns of communication. I also work with individuals who are looking to build off their strengths, gain insight, increase resilience and achieve their goals.
