When relationships reach a turning point, clarity matters.
With over 30 years of clinical experience, I specialize in working with couples preparing for or redefining significant partnerships, as well as those navigating thoughtful separation. My approach is collaborative, grounded and focused on intentional decision making rather than crisis driven work.

I use this knowledge to help individuals, couples, and families.
I am seeking to work with clients and families who want to uncover why life is not as fulfilling as it could. I want to help bring light to dark places in people's lives. I provide services in under served areas to reduce the effects of disparity in the mental health community. I feel that mental health is a right for all people at all stages of life. A little help now can have big impacts later in life. I also constantly advocate for the rights of the mentally ill.

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.
