If ya'll are ready to grow, I'm ready to walk alongside of you. Are you motivated yet confused and hurting, too? You’re not alone. Relationships are tough and require a lot of work. That becomes even more tricky when the world is in crisis. Or, when you feel like you are in the midst of crisis. To be honest, your
partner
needs you, your children need you, your friends need you, and your family needs you. But mostly, you need you. You deserve the freedom to vent, unload your fear, and make space for peace and change.

My work with individuals,
couples
and families is drawn from psychodynamic, emotionally focused, cognitive behavioral theories using a variety of thoughtful and targeted interventions.
Therapy is not education or advice-giving. People are unique, so elements of therapy are tailored because healing is different for everybody. My treatment approach is an atmosphere were you can speak your mind safely, to someone who listens, listens intelligently, and cares is important. I believe a successful counseling experience depends on the therapists ability to understand and respect the unique concerns, background, and context of each patient. I am committed to achieving such an understanding in every counseling
relationship
.

I work alongside a variety of individuals; specifically, women with: depression and anxiety, challenges with self esteem and self worth, issues with stress management, rebuilding after an emotionally abusive

Mental health exists within all of us. At times, we will lean toward mental well-being while other times we experience mental health struggles. Everyone will face mental health struggles at some point in their lives. When we do, it can be incredibly overwhelming and difficult to know how to address. Thankfully, we have therapy for this. Therapy will help you find the disconnect between where you are in your mental health journey and where you want to be.

Are you feeling overwhelmed in your job or having problems in your
relationship
? Is there something keeping you from being motivated? Could it be depression? After all, depression is like the common cold. Everyone gets it sooner or later. Have you suffered a loss? The loss of a loved one, the loss of a job, the loss of mobility? It can help to talk about it.

I have supported those who have experienced grief and loss,
relationship
changes, life transitions and those who are exploring their own self-identity.
Hello! Looking for a therapist can be a daunting process, and searching for one means that you’re one step closer to working with the therapist who is right for you. I feel honored that I may be an option as a therapist to support you. Therapy can be helpful for navigating the ups and downs of life, and processing internal thoughts in an unbiased atmosphere. It’s normal to have emotions, and to explore them without judgement. I have experience working with clients of all ages, and understand how challenges can impact each person differently depending on their own experiences and circumstances.

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.
