I’m Ongisa, a Couple and Family Therapist with a specialty in human communication. I work extensively with individuals and couples. I often find that communication breakdowns are at the center of unhappy relationships. Poor communication can leave partners feeling unsafe, misunderstood, and exhausted. If you’re currently experiencing distress or a disconnect in a relationship that genuinely matters to you, then I’m your person.
Problems aren’t always people-centered. Your relationship with other things, such as work, school, money, food, shopping, and your body competes for your attention. Life constantly forces us to juggle our connections to loved ones along with our relationship with these things. It’s easy to get out of balance and need an adjustment.
I use clinically proven treatment modalities such as Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Bowen Family Systems Therapy to help you gain clarity, improve communication, heal relationships, and avoid repeating the same mistakes or unhealthy patterns. Schedule a free consultation so we can get you on the road to wellness.
