Life is hard. In one moment, life as you know it can be completely changed. Are the things that once made you happy no longer making you happy? Have you been through a frightening experience that left you feeling scared, lonely, or even doubting who you are? Maybe you’ve been through a series of little things that you believe shouldn’t be bothering you, but they are. Do you feel completely misunderstood and alone? I get it. You are not alone. Everyone needs space to process life’s challenges and successes. No one is supposed to be able to figure it all out on their own.

Sometimes life hands us experiences we didn't ask for, don't want, & don’t feel equipped to handle. Filled with anxiety or surrounded by loss, it can feel like there is nowhere to turn. You want to be successful, have good relationships with friends & family, contribute meaningfully to the world & even have some fun. Instead you may find yourself struggling to get out of bed in the morning, cycling through negative thoughts, overwhelmed with hopelessness, or even sabotaging work or relationships. Sometimes emotions get so big that we defend ourselves against them, building walls that often lead to numbness, anxiety and depression.

Asking for support for yourself or your child is a courageous step. Without warning you may find yourself dealing with loss of a relationship, changing schools or jobs, or just feeling like life has lost its spark.

Together, we can develop the skills needed to motivate you or your child & enhance your individual strengths.

Are You Feeling Overwhelmed? Burned out? Exhausted, but can't sleep? Maybe you distract yourself to get through your work day or school day by daydreaming of a life far from your own. But when reality hits, you freeze. Overwhelmed by the weight of it all, you don't know what to do next. You’re not alone. I know that it can be hard to reach out for help– but none of us are meant to go through this life alone. An environment with a compassionate and trained confidant, makes all the difference. Healing is possible.

Most days, you pretend that everything's ok: you stay busy & put a smile on to get through it. On other days, it’s harder to get through the overwhelming emotions. There are even moments of panic where all your emotions hit you and you can’t escape them. Maybe you stay in bed all day. Or, maybe you go to work or school, but can’t focus & find yourself crying. You can’t figure out why. Support Can Make a Difference. Life can be challenging, especially for kids/teens these days. And transitions can be scary or overwhelming. Sometimes you need someone who has the tools for building healthy coping skills to support you through them.

You have done everything you were always told you were supposed to, so why do you feel so miserable? Why is it, despite any of your accomplishments, you still feel like a failure? You may not have even noticed your dissatisfaction because you've been so busy taking care of others. But lately you've begun to realize that somewhere amongst all your efforts and responsibilities, you've never really been happy, not deep down. What's worse, you feel as though no one understands your pain because all they see is someone who puts on a brave face. I know you're tired of taking care of everyone else, and I can help you!

Marriage Counseling Therapists
How does marriage counseling work?
Marriage counseling works by teaching couples concrete skills to communicate with one another and solve disagreements in healthy ways. A trained mental health professional works with both members of a couple to explore difficulties the couple may be having and helps them develop skills to address these matters. Couples who don’t have any difficulties but want to prepare for marriage may develop skills for the future.
How long does marriage counseling typically last?
Marriage counseling is a short-term form of therapy; the process may last between four and eight sessions. Other forms of relationship guidance from mental health professionals, such as couples therapy, are longer lasting, may focus on the past rather than just the present, and are tailored to the individual couple and their emotions, history, and patterns in the relationship. Couples therapy often lasts for 12 weeks or longer.
Is marriage counseling effective?
Marriage counseling helps many couples develop relationship skills that may not have been acquired or tested in a relationship; partners may be better able to communicate and address conflict following counseling. However, there are many different forms of marriage counseling, and this form of counseling does not have as strong an evidence base as other modalities such as couples therapy.
Is marriage counseling effective if only one partner wants to go?
Yes, marriage counseling can still be effective if one partner convinces the other to engage in the process. Of course, whether counseling is effective depends on the couple’s commitment to work on their relationship; however, the short-term, skills-based nature of marriage counseling makes it a relatively easy “ask” of a partner, and the hesitant individual may see its value once counseling begins.
