I love my work as a couples' counselor. I'm a Gottman Seven Principles Program Educator. I have over 20 years experience doing individual and couples therapy, and 15 years in private practice. I help couples improve communication, rekindle intimacy and improve awareness of patterns which may result in defensiveness, or feeling "not heard" by your partner. In individual therapy, I create a warm environment where my clients feel comfortable to discuss their issues. Together we develop goals & strategies for cultivating positive changes. In couples work, we address problematic communication to change those patterns from ineffective to effective habits & behaviors.

My intention for you is to gently but dynamically create opportunities for growth and healing through flexible and creative alternatives to break through old patterns. I like to collaborate with motivated clients who are willing to work to change their lives. My goal is to help you discover your own solutions to your problems and concerns in an environment that is welcoming, empathetic and non-judgmental. I do that by carefully attending to your thoughts and feelings. Although I will offer specific "interventions" I believe that change occurs during therapy when there is strong motivation combined with the quality of our connection.

Have you considered coaching? Therapy can be amazing & life saving, but perhaps a fresh experience of deep, holistic coaching is what you’re actually longing for right now. You may be on the brink of something amazing, but deeply terrifying and challenging. Your ideals are in question, while painful disconnect and sabotage is creeping in. Under it all, you have a sense of what life could be, who you could be, and what you could contribute. If you take that voice seriously today, you’ll be able to look back at this moment with pride, knowing that you heard it and opened up to new possibilities. Deep coaching can yield deep growth.
