Apart from receiving advanced training in working with couples, I also have training in trauma work, including Trauma Informed Stabilization Treatment (TIST).
I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who has been in practice for over 20 years. The foundation of my work is the firm belief that we are wired to connect with others. When we fail to do so in some aspects of our lives, we become depressed and anxious and feel alone. My goal is to help you have healthy connections with others. People who have found my work helpful include couples dealing with relational issues, cross-cultural relationships, childhood trauma, anxiety, cultural and race issues.

My specialty focuses mainly with clients who suffer from anxiety, depressive mood, addiction, grief/loss, eating disorder, relationship, identity, and sexual abuse issues.
To experience life fully is to fully experience a wide range of balanced emotions. However, when sadness, anger, guilt and shame, depressed or anxious emotions infringe on our physical, mental, and relational well being, psychotherapy will help to restore a balanced life that can lead to healing and growth. I believe that having a trusted and meaningful relationship with my client is the foundation of successful therapy. For this reason, I provide a safe, nurturing, and active listening therapeutic environment where the process of healing and growth can take place.

Transitions are hard. There is often so much shame around trying to figure out who we are and asking for what we want. Am I going to burden others? Am I too much for people if I ask for something that I desire? Am I being "selfish"? Who am I to "demand" others for things I don't think I "deserve"? If these are some of the questions you have asked yourself, then I'm here to help. It's okay to feel lost, like you're wandering the woods alone. I'm here for you so we can wander these woods together.

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.
