Are you and your partner experiencing emotional distance and separation? Are you struggling to understand what is happening, wanting intimacy but finding yourselves fighting more than connecting? As a couples counselor, I can offer support, insight, and new skills l leading to success in relationships.

I have experience working with individuals struggling with a variety of issues including anxiety, depression, trauma, and disorders such as borderline personality disorder and bipolar disorder. These challenges can leave you feeling alone, but help is near.

Along with everything else going on, parenting in particular can feel overwhelming and discouraging. When you are out of ideas, you may need a fresh perspective. I support parents by helping you build your child's self concept and pull them into patterns of success. I help children process emotions using the language of play.
