Emotionally Focused
Couples Therapy is a model I was trained in to help couples Hold onto each other through life's many ups and downs.
Love and Connection in life should not be confusing. But there is always a risk when it comes to getting those two critical human relational needs. Many times relationships feel like a dance, and feeling lost with no road map? It can often turn into division or discomfort, but does it always have to be that way?
Emotionally Focused
Therapy is a proven, evidence-based method that enhances couples' ability to gain Love and Connection through safety and security. And I would love to be that resource, coach, advocate to help teams sustain longevity in their relationship without leading to isolation or further hurt.

The journey of life can be difficult, stressful, and tiresome. Wherever you are at on your journey, I commend you for considering this step into therapy. Therapy is a place of empathy, inspiration, and healing. As a therapist, you will find it difficult to convince me that you are the problem. Whether the problem is depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction, marital strain, or the honorable goal of raising your kids well, I will listen to you and your story with open ears and a kind heart. I won't pretend to be an expert on your life, though I will offer helpful and honest recommendations along the journey.

Trauma does not have to be a life sentence. I work with women and teens to find healing, especially trauma, abuse and neglect victims on their healing journeys. Patients often tell me that they appreciate my approach to therapy because they don't have to tell their story in order to heal from trauma. My therapy practice incorporates leading edge holistic techniques such as Somatic Experiencing Therapy that can reduce your symptoms in a safe, supported and natural way. We'll start with what's going on in the moment and how to gain control over your body and thoughts. I look forward to teaching you tools to take your life back.

"People are just as wonderful as sunsets if you let them be. When I look at a sunset, I don't find myself saying, 'Soften the orange a bit on the right hand corner.' I don't try to control a sunset. I watch with awe as it unfolds." -Carl R. Rogers. I appreciate the intrinsic value of every person's journey. As your therapist, I place high value on creating a non-judgmental, safe haven that allows for each individual to address life's challenges and to achieve personal growth.

When I decided to get into counseling, I realized that we all have a multitude of DYNAMICS which can benefit or create challenges in our lives. Entering into counseling has its own set of DYNAMICS and I plan to help you be aware of the positive benefits counseling can have in your everyday life. I love to find ways to motivate, challenge, and promote a quality of life which has meaning and purpose. Being DYNAMIC is simply being in constant change, activity or progress. We are DYNAMIC, and I look forward to meeting with you.

Emotionally Focused Therapists
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is an approach to therapy that helps clients identify their emotions, learn to explore and experience them, to understand them and then to manage them. Wichita Emotionally Focused Therapy embraces the idea that emotions can be changed, first by arriving at or 'living' the maladaptive emotion (e.g. loss, fear or shame) in session, and then learning to transform it. Emotionally Focused Therapy for couples seeks to break the negative emotion cycles within relationships, emphasizing the importance of the attachment bond between couples, and how nurturing of the attachment bonds and an empathetic understanding of each others emotions can break the cycles.
