The relationship you form with a counselor can help move you to making the changes you desire in life. Maybe you feel stuck or are facing some challenges with an important relationship? I focus on helping people expand and strengthen their resources by establishing clear goals for personal growth. I strive to help people feel comfortable, welcome, and safe in therapy and use creative strategies to help unlock their potential. In counseling, I enjoy working with couples and families to learn new strategies to communicate their feelings with each other leading to improved relationships. Contact me for a free 15 minute intake call.
I facilitate clients reaching their goals by creating an open and welcoming atmosphere that allows people to feel comfortable yet challenged. I practice with an integrative style using Solution Focused and Experiential Therapy techniques as well as Emotion-Focused Couples Therapy. I employ various tools including Gottman Therapy techniques and strategies.
As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I specialize in helping people navigate relationships, since our relationships are one of the most influential factors in our lives. As a parent of three, married for 17 years, I have some personal experience in how amazing and challenging relationships can be. Please email or call me to set up an appointment.

I connect deeply with clients to explore how emotions are experienced and expressed in their relationships, all while keeping an eye on the bigger picture—the systemic patterns affecting their ability to change. Engagement is key; we collaboratively define goals, prioritize cultural curiosity, and actively work toward tangible, positive transformation. I often use Emotion Focused Therapy.
