I do individual and couples counseling and have a heavy focus on trauma, PTSD and how to cope with the symptoms. People with heavy trauma tend to search to know what it's like to be their authentic selves. I focus on understanding the individuals communication styles and how to best present them to the world and how to communicate with others. There is a heavy focus on reframing internal monologues and gaining coping skills to improve daily quality of life.

I am a Faith Based (Catholic/Christian) License Professional Counselor. Certified in Trauma, Grief and Loss that loves working with Adolescents, Couples, Families and Individuals since 2004. I strongly believe that through our life our experiences may leave deep wounds that stop us from being loved by others and giving love to others. Through Therapy, one can begin to process these wounds, as a heart surgeon unclogs the arteries of the heart, and begin to feel like the loving individual that God created us to be and wants us to be

I have extensive history working with couples who have struggled with infidelity, addiction, sexual problems, abuse, and the daily grind of balancing the many responsibilities life has given us.
People turn to counseling when they feel most overwhelmed. Failed attempts to fix complex issues have only added to the piling frustration. One of the rewards in being a therapist is the inspiration I get in watching my clients grow despite their endured suffering. My name is Donny, and I would like to be the first to congratulate you on making the first step towards wellness. I've helped families reduce tension, marriages regain long-lost attunement, and aided those suffering from depression, anxiety, addiction, trauma, and loss. And I would like to help you get back on track.

I've worked with children, adolescents, couples and families.
Life is difficult. And for various reasons--pride, fear and procrastination among them--we as humans don't always readily reach out for help. There are many ways to reach out. Some do it through talking to family members or clergy. Some through friends or support groups. And sometimes the problems we are dealing with go away by themselves. But not usually.

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.
