As an experienced, licensed psychologist, my role is to help people during difficult times in their lives. You might be experiencing conflict, anger, despair, sadness or simply feeling overwhelmed with daily responsibilities. I can help you to learn new, more efficient ways for managing time, stressors, relationships and emotions. My approach is supportive, with a focus on blending relief with an understanding of past and present factors impacting you and your decision-making.

Life has its fair share of ups and downs and despite your best efforts, the old ways of approaching life's challenges may no longer work. Seeking professional help can be difficult, but as a fully licensed and nationally certified counselor, my goal is to create an encouraging, safe, trusting, and compassionate environment where you can begin to heal. Discovering new ways to think about your past, your current challenges, and your future, can reduce stress, improve health, enhance relationships and increase self-esteem. When paired with setting goals and implementing new behavioral skills, personal growth is MORE than achievable!

Have you been feeling clouded by self-doubt? Do things feel heavier than usual? Do you have a desire to explore yourself and your life on a deeper level? Questions about your past choices bombard you throughout the mornings. Your nights are highlighted with worries about the future. Managing each day is a task that continues to be unfulfilling without the right support. After years of taking care of others, you are now in need of someone neutral who will allow you to express yourself openly and genuinely. I am passionate and dedicated to helping you experience relief and growth in ways that are personally meaningful for you.

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.
