I am trained in Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP) for individuals and
Emotionally Focused
Therapy for couples and families.
I am a Marriage and Family Therapist Candidate, a wife, and a mother. I know the joys of Marriage and Family, but I also know the struggles. Not only have I completed a Master's in Marriage and Family Therapy from Regis University, I also have a Master's in Theological Studies from the John Paul II Institute. I enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families from all backgrounds. I am especially familiar with Latino culture (since I grew up with a step-father from Peru).

I primarily utilize
Emotionally Focused
Therapy.
Sometimes life can get pretty tricky and have us feeling stuck, unsure, and discouraged. The therapeutic journey involves taking courageous steps in order to move forward, gain self-acceptance, and reconnect with yourself in new ways. I believe that you are the expert of your own life, thus my goal in counseling is to provide you with a safe, nonjudgmental environment where you feel free to explore.

Additionally, I work with couples using the
Emotionally Focused
Therapeutic model.
Thank you for visiting my profile page. You have taken a courageous and often difficult first step. Despite feeling alone and scared, the fear of judgment and shame about our struggles can prevent us from sharing our story and asking for help. Therapy can often be the bridge out of isolation to healing, and a space for you to explore and gain greater understanding of your struggles. It is with compassion and curiosity that I hope to meet you in your circumstances and help you navigate the journey.

When working with couples I use
Emotionally Focused
Therapy (EFT) and Gottman curriculum.
There are times in life when the coping skills that we have are no longer effective and the things that you thought that you moved past are somehow staring you in the face. I provide a comfortable atmosphere to discover skills to tackle old and new "things". I enjoy working with adults and couples. My area of interests include anxiety, depression, marital concerns, PTSD, and trauma.

Life’s seasons can have a way of making us feel out of control, hindering our presence in the here and now. Many times all we need is someone on the road with us. Whether it be mood-related setbacks, past or present trauma, or attachment wounds, together we can make moves toward emotional growth and well-being.

I use an integrated approach via teleheath, and specialize in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Attachment Therapy, and
Emotionally Focused
Therapy.
Individuals who are struggling with depression, anxiety, family issues, post traumatic stress disorder, bipolar disorder or any other mental health conditions are all in need of direction. Individuals feel like they are unable to manage their life circumstance and find life difficult or unmanageable. Most are in need of direction to determine where to take the first step to healing. Everyone wants to be the best version of them self, but some find themselves, stuck, distracted or lost.

Would you like to be able to: communicate better with your partner; decrease the fighting and increase the good times; feel safer in your relationships; and know that your partner "gets" you? Call me and let me help. As a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I integrate systemic therapies and use
Emotionally Focused
Therapy (EFT). EFT is a short term (8-20 sessions) structured therapy that is based on adult love and attachment. Over 20 years of validated research shows that 90% of couples (traditional and non-traditional) show distinct improvement with EFT, including those suffering from post traumatic stress disorders, depression and chronic illness.

Human beings are hard-wired for connection, which is as essential for survival as food, water, and air. When a person is deprived of that connection it creates bondage that can be crushing, robbing us of the freedom we were created to enjoy. My clinical experience includes trauma, attachment issues, adoption, parenting, marriage, family conflict, anxiety/depression, and spiritual formation.

I use the most researched and successful approach to couples therapy -
Emotionally Focused
Couples Therapy.
You feel like you’ve grown apart. It’s almost like you’re living two separate lives - and you used to be so close. Now you argue about the same things over and over again. It's so hard to communicate. It seems like you can’t ever get this person you fell in love with to hear you anymore. You never expected to feel so much pain when you first fell in love. But, you do. And you don’t want to feel it anymore. Neither of you do. You both know something has to change. And you cant wait anymore. It's time to do something.

My primary model for working with couples is
Emotionally Focused
Couples Therapy.
"I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW WE GOT HERE." Sound familiar? It does to me, because I've heard it over and over in my office. By the time many couples make it into counseling, they feel disillusioned and angry, even hopeless. Please know, however, that there is hope! Research into relationships shows that couples can discover and change how they interact, leading to a restoration of the connection they once had, or the creation of the one they always wanted.

Are you looking for help and you do not know where to start? Do you feel as though what worked/helped before is no longer giving you the same results? Are you experiencing turmoil, unrest, depressive mood, anxiety, excessive stress, anger, or other negative feelings? Is there conflict between you and your loved one(s)? I can certainly help! You are taking the steps towards a better life and I’d love to work alongside you to help make that happen. As a helping professional, my passion is helping people. I provide a safe, non-judgmental, non-biased space that is filled with compassion and understanding for processing hard emotions.

I specialize in
Emotionally Focused
Couples Therapy to guide couples.
My role is to create a safe enough environment for you to be your authentic self, first in therapy and then showing up authentically with those around you. Because no person is an island and most interact with others everyday, therapy can help you transition out of social awkwardness and isolation into enriched and fulfilling interpersonal relationships. I have been promoting mental health professionally since 1998. I value ethical conduct, accessible pricing, effective interventions, and practical methods in psychotherapy practice. Please only email or call me but do not go to my website and book an appointment!

I utilize many different modalities, to include Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Person-centered Therapy and various trauma treatments. I use active listening, coping skills and breathing techniques. My goal as a therapist, is to continue learning new skills to offer my clients and to be a life long learner in the field of psychotherapy. With more than 20 years of experience in the field, I offer a calm environment to help you feel at ease.

I specialize in
Emotionally Focused
Therapy for individuals, couples and families.
Relationships are the most important things in life. They provide safety, security, support, physical health, sense of purpose and companionship. Are you in a relationship feeling lonely, distressed or unhappy? When our relationship isn't working, our whole Self suffers and every aspect of our life is affected. Do you want to work through your issues to safe connection, unconditional acceptance, and warm contentment? No matter the level of distress in your relationship(s), from "something is a little off" to grave breaches of trust, counseling can move you from despair and hopelessness to the Self and relationship you long for.

Emotionally Focused Therapists
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is an approach to therapy that helps clients identify their emotions, learn to explore and experience them, to understand them and then to manage them. Emotionally Focused Therapy embraces the idea that emotions can be changed, first by arriving at or 'living' the maladaptive emotion (e.g. loss, fear or shame) in session, and then learning to transform it. Emotionally Focused Therapy for couples seeks to break the negative emotion cycles within relationships, emphasizing the importance of the attachment bond between couples, and how nurturing of the attachment bonds and an empathetic understanding of each others emotions can break the cycles.
