, narrative theory, person-centered, and IFS.
I am curious about you. I want to know your thoughts and feelings, your strengths and struggles. I want to get to hear your story. I see therapy as a journey we take as a team: working together to find the right path to meet your goals. If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, life stress, or maybe just want to give therapy a try, I’d love to talk.

I believe therapy is holistic work where we learn to recognize the strength that lies within ourselves as we retell our stories. I am eager to walk beside those in the trenches and give them a safe space to process the things that may feel too heavy to hold alone. I bring a collaborative approach to therapy in a non-judgmental environment where clients are empowered to be their whole selves and move toward healing and growth. I believe the reason people begin counseling can point toward a deeper story that we can explore and work through together.

No 2 people are alike, therefore, I provide an individualized approach, Mind/body,
Emotionally focused
, EMDR, or Hypnotherapy, can enhance the results.
My clients express that the feeling of being heard & understood for the 1st time in their life provides a safe, nonjudgemental, place. Relationship issues, anxiety, addictions, stress, trauma, & life transitions, are areas I can help with. A person brings who they are into every relationship and problems limit your capacity to experience, and be authentic in this world. Discover what's really behind the scenes. Uncover the parts of yourself that have been hidden, holding your true potential. My focus is to help you to increase your capacity to be able to experience life more fully, with less stress and true joy.

Life is complex, with demands on you, your relationships, and your time causing stressors that make your personal and work life seem overwhelming. Headaches. Lack of sleep. No energy to spend time with loved ones. Maybe you’re not showing your best self to your spouse and are faced with the dreaded “We need to talk” conversation. You know that anxiety, depression, or past trauma is affecting your well-being, marriage, and meaningful relationships. It makes you feel as if you’ll never meet your own or others’ expectations or goals.

Emotionally Focused Therapists
Who is emotionally focused therapy for?
Emotionally focused therapy (EFT) is for couples who are emotionally distressed, stuck in an unsatisfying relationship pattern or feeling deeply alienated. They may even believe the relationship is beyond repair. Very often, the partners display intense anger, fear, grief, loss of trust, or a sense of betrayal in the relationship. In addition, EFT is helpful to couples and individuals who have difficulty expressing emotions and those who have trouble regulating emotions.
Why do people need emotionally focused therapy?
People need emotionally focused therapy because the need for others is built into the brain, but the pressures of daily life can erode feelings of love, and couples often do not have the skills to find their way back to the comfort of each other. Instead, they may be stuck in repetitive patterns of anger, fear, grief, loss of trust, or a sense of betrayal. Emotionally focused therapy regards such strong negative feelings as expressions of protest over the loss of connection and turns them into pathways of reconnection.
What happens in emotionally focused therapy?
Over the course of eight to 20 weekly sessions, couples de-escalate their negative emotional reactivity to one another so that they can listen to each other and be responsive to each other’s needs. Then the deep emotional and physical bond is restored, giving partners a sense of comfort and security, which they can use to solve whatever problems come their way. The therapist plays an active role, helping partners understand how anger and withdrawal are actually misguided cries for connection.
What problems does emotionally focused therapy treat?
EFT is designed to help couples stuck in dysfunctional relationship patterns regain closeness and rebuild their relationship. Typically, such couples experience considerable distress, with partners feeling alienated and distrustful of one another, not certain their relationship can survive. EFT is also helpful to individuals experiencing attachment-related fears of loss; it helps them learn to use their fears as a way of eliciting the closeness they desire.
