I support clients experiencing intense change in their relationships; breaking up, getting married, starting a family, blending families, moving in together, experiencing infertility, grieving a death or loss, separating, divorcing, and more. To do so, I offer various couple's therapy formats (discernment counseling, pre-marital counseling, and conscious uncoupling support), family therapy for parents/children, and individual therapy for adults and teenagers impacted by these relationship transitions as well.
Relationships have their own life cycles with critical junctures; painful, joyful, and often marked by uncertainty. With the right support, I believe these deep heartbreaks open us up to the deepest connections and sense of being human, giving us a chance to heal and transform old patterns into authentic connection.
If you see yourself here, I would love to find a time to talk on the phone and see if we'd be a good fit- please reach out, and let's chat.
Now offering a Women's support group for divorce, and a group focused on perfectionism. Please inquire on my website to learn more!
