I work with people to understand what may be holding them back from achieving their goals, whether in relationships or professionally. Often, old patterns that are no longer useful and out of one's awareness are operating. These concerns come up both in individual and couple work. I focus on attachment patterns -- in couples , there is often a pursuer and an avoider, although these roles are not always fixed. I've seen these patterns in couples of all sexual orientations. I do my best to stay away from gender stereotypes and stay open to what is being communicated, both verbally and nonverbally.

As a couples coach I shuttle between developing individual insight, promoting awareness about the dynamic, in combination with concrete directive suggestions to create behavioral changes in the relationship .
Are you struggling with: effective, respectful communication with your partner ; trauma recovery; difficulty setting limits or establishing boundaries; repeating unhealthy patterns of thinking, behavior, or emotion; identifying your needs and getting your needs met; day-to-day state of anxiety, anger, fear, or sadness; a difficult life transition. Have you been in therapy before, but didn’t achieve the change you were hoping for? Somatic Relational Therapy might be for you. We can’t think or talk our way out of trauma. We live in a body, and we experience suffering and trauma in our bodies, and it is through our body that we heal.

Things are not going the way you want. Maybe you're having the same struggles you've had before. You're stressed, anxious, unhappy. You have many responsibilities, you're frustrated, under so much pressure. But, at the end of the day, you don't have the relationship or life you want. It seems easier for other people. You may be feeling alone or lonely. It eats away at your confidence. In private you might question your self-worth, think you're not good enough. Maybe others think you have it all together, or they rely on you. It is especially confusing if you are successful in other areas. You are used to fixing things on your own.

My experiences include but are not limited to working with depression and anxiety, relationship difficulties, issues confronted in early adulthood, substance use/addiction, sexual abuse and trauma, grief, adolescent development, issues around transitioning to college, as well as issues relating to sexual orientation and gender identity.
Sometimes you know exactly what the problem might be, and other times it feels more confusing and elusive. Psychotherapy is a wonderful way to facilitate and enact positive change into your life. My predominant goal is to make you feel safe and supported, so that you can explore and connect your thoughts, feelings, and experiences in a productive manner. I believe that past experiences and relationships have a profound impact on our present emotional health and work to explore those experiences using a variety of effective treatment approaches tailored to the individual or couple.

Research shows that the best predictors of whether or not therapy will be effective is based on the therapeutic relationship and on your attitude about therapy.
Our therapists' philosophy on therapy is based on the power of introspection, understanding our relationships with others, and the knowledge that we all have the capacity to make changes in our lives. Our belief is that our role as therapists is to help you explore yourself in the setting of a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental environment. We will help you understand yourself better in the context of all of your relationships both past and present, and we will work together to help you make the changes you seek in life. Most importantly, we want to help you find a sense of peace in becoming your most authentic self.

Psychotherapy is about change and growth, an endeavor that takes commitment and courage. Change can be painful at times and often scares us, so we rather stay within the bounds of old but familiar patterns of going about our lives. To have someone you trust to guide you through the change process can make all the difference. A genuine and supportive therapeutic relationship can help you take an honest look at your feelings and thoughts about yourself and your relationships with others, which will bring about the change that removes the barriers to a healthy and fulfilled life.

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.
