I understand firsthand how very distressing and threatening it feels to be disconnected from loved ones. In my work, I dive deep into the center of what drives clients apart, and I help to pull them together into a united team against their relational difficulties. I help my clients tap into the deep transformative power that their relationships have to offer as a means of healing inner wounds, providing safety, and giving confidence to tackle life’s challenges. I also work with men's issues, and I get why it may feel more comfortable for many men to talk to another man about tough emotional experiences.
Through my expertise as a Certified Emotionally Focused Couples Therapist, I can help you and your partner to identify your pattern of conflict, connect with your emotions, and move you toward deep intimacy and connection with each other. I can use ACT to help you unhook from difficult thoughts and emotions and act on what matters most to you.
EFT and ACT aren't just methods that I use and leave behind after work. They have created significant personal shifts that I live out in my life and relationships everyday. I'm excited to share these approaches with you. Let's connect for an initial conversation to see if we could make a great team to move you towards the life you want.
