New Evening Sessions Available! I provide counseling to children, couples, and families within a relational framework. I understand that people face problems in the context of relationships with others and our lives can be affected by outside influences. When your child’s tantrums feel overwhelming and frustrating, I help guide and direct you towards confidence in parenting. Since I apply Gottman Method Couples Therapy when working with couples, I support couples to build a deeper connection from arguments and anger in their relationship.

I have worked with anger management, relationship stress, PTSD, LGBTQ+, and so many others.
As individuals, we navigate through life with the tools that were handed to us through our family systems. Sometimes that's not enough to keep us on course for what we desire out of life. Relationships can be complicated, depression can be isolating, and anxiety can be crippling. Breaking free from the chains that mental health binds us to can be the most liberating feeling, why not try it out?

Supervised by Tammy Fisher, MA, LPC-S, LMFT-S. Life is difficult, it is even more difficult when relations with those closest to us become stretched, strained and torn apart. When we are stressed, our responses sometimes revert to survival reactions which can put not only our physical health in danger, but can also isolate us from those we love most. Criticism, contempt, defensiveness, and stonewalling are all signals that a relationship is wounded and prevent us from being heard by others. We all want to be heard and acknowledged by those around us.

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.
