Here are my specialties: Couples/relationship issues, improving communication skills, narcissistic abuse recovery, PTSD, Trauma, anger management, domestic violence, anxiety, and depression.
As a Therapist, I am knowledgeable, trustworthy, and kind. I view each person I meet as a unique individual with their own goals, needs, and desires. One thing that can be helpful is having a nonjudgmental person to talk to who actually understands and cares. I want to be that person for you, whom you can open up to and trust, who will show you compassion and empathy in your darkest hours. I believe that you are the master of your own life but I am here to help you find the path to happiness and healing.

It is my commitment to meet you where you are and build a trusting, working relationship to honor your story and experiences.
Trying to figure out who you are? What your purpose is? Looking to improve relationships? Wholehearted living is a concept that I have adopted in the name of my practice and in the way I interact with each client. "It means cultivating courage, compassion, and connection and to think... I am enough... Yes I'm imperfect, vulnerable, and sometimes afraid but that doesn't change the truth that I am also brave and worthy of love and belonging" - B. Brown. I believe any person deserves to feel whole. This is a process of returning to yourself through excavation, unlearning, and remembering who we are.

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.
