I firmly believe in building a strong relationship with each client by offering a safe, comfortable environment, and going at your pace.
My work revolves around one's strengths. Every client has strengths although it may seem difficult to identify them at times. Being strength based helps to increase self motivation for each client. Much of my therapy includes helping to challenge various thought distortions and beliefs. Many times life can take us on an unexpected path and we need support to get back to where we want to be. This can be done in a variety of ways which is why I take a multidimensional approach to treatment.

Life is challenging. Relationships can be difficult. Unexpected events happen. We fall off balance. We aren't sure of what to do and we feel stuck.... A caring therapeutic relationship provides the opportunity to reflect on your life in a safe and supportive environment. When you talk things out, you are able to clarify what you need and how to create the life you want and deserve. Together we will work towards you reclaiming a sense of passion, "presence" and purpose, and to take action towards balancing the things that matter most to you, creating an authentic and gratifying life.

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.

I specialize in helping couples , polycules, and individuals to deepen and repair emotional, intimate, and sexual connection.
No person is an island. Life would be so easy if it were possible to handle everything alone. Yet this world is full of challenges, stress, and trauma, made all the more difficult when we lack access to our most important resources. We get stuck in frustrating patterns that leave us feeling distant from our loved ones and from ourselves. This distance weaves its way into so many things: mental and physical health, identity, sexual interest and performance, and right back into the relationships we should be able to rely on.

I work through building a collaborative, non-judgmental, therapeutic relationship based on acceptance, safety, equality, and honesty.
Life is a beautiful gift full of contrast, challenges, love and abundance. It provides the opportunities to learn and grow. We can also get lost in the challenges that can cause us to disconnect form our guidance system and become reactive to our current experience. Our individuality can get lost and we tend to identify ourselves by our mistakes, failures, or labels; these things do not define us. I work with individuals, couples , teens and adolescents who want or need guidance and support in today's changing world.

My specialties include: Individuals, kids/teens, family, co-parenting, couples and marriage counseling.
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.

Couples Counseling Therapists

Does couples counseling work?

Research shows that couples counseling is effective; it can reduce relationship distress and improve emotional awareness, communication, empathy, intimacy, and overall relationship satisfaction. For example, emotionally focused therapy was found to be effective for about 75 percent of couples, and those benefits lasted at least two years.

When should a couple seek counseling?

Couples can benefit from counseling if they consistently struggle in their relationship. They may have lost the ability to communicate effectively, become entrenched in harmful patterns, begun to fight more than usual, broken the other’s trust, suffered from a mental or physical illness, or faced any number of other challenges. Many therapists offer free consultations, so if a couple isn’t sure whether therapy is necessary, asking directly can provide clarity.

How can I get my partner to go to couples therapy?

The decision to seek couples therapy is often driven by one partner, who then convinces the other to participate. When discussing the idea, the initiator should be direct and assertive. They can state the problems they see and explain how the relationship would benefit from therapy. In more serious cases, they can also explain how their relationship may suffer without making any changes or seeking professional help.

How does a couple prepare for couples counseling?

The anticipation of beginning couples counseling can be difficult—sometimes more difficult than the first session itself. Taking a few moments to reflect can allay those concerns: What are the current challenges? When and how did they begin? What do they want the relationship to look like in the future? Reflecting on these questions can help individuals or couples articulate their goals. Of course, the therapist will also ask questions and guide couples through the process.
