Couples, have you grown apart, longing for a deeper connection that's not in sight? Do you occasionally question if your partner really is there for you? Are you feeling controlled and unappreciated despite all you do? If so, there is hope.The gift of therapy coupled with your unique way of caring for yourself, (mind, body, spirit) can radically shift your dynamic. Those planning to marry can explore hot topics and hone tools to avoid common intimacy pitfalls before the marital journey begins.
Working with me, you can maximize your relational potential in a non-judgmental atmosphere. I provide premarital counseling,"tune-ups," infidelity recovery as well as individual counseling to those struggling from past psychological neglect (abuse, trauma), all at a pace that honors your particular orientation, heritage and capacity.
I find it extremely rewarding to trek along side others who desire deep change. Healing can happen. Count on me as you courageously engage a therapeutic process tailored to your unique need. Life balance awaits!

I often use Emotionally Focused Therapy for couples and individuals in my practice. In the first few session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and decide the most appropriate way to begin treatment. With EFT, we'll look at how your attachment style impacts how you show up in relationships. During treatment, I'll help you disengage the blocks so that closeness and intimacy flourishes.
