With an Emotionally Focused approach, I help couples improve communication and deepen connection.
Sometimes life gets heavy. You can end up feeling unmotivated, overwhelmed, and alone. When you feel anxious or depressed, you want relief. I can understand and support you. I want you to know it can get better! Working together can be the start of living the life you want. My goal is to get to know you (or you and your partner), provide compassion, and a safe space where we can work together to reach your goals. Reaching out is the beginning of your path to well-being.

I use EFT, Cognitive- Behavior Therapy, EMDR, Mindfulness and several other modalities to assist in the healing process.
If you are here, you are ready to heal. Depression and anxiety have made you question your worth. Childhood trauma has made you believe you are not lovable. Your familial and romantic relationships expose the emotional storms you weather that move you to put up walls to keep out pain. You and your partner are constantly fighting, and you no longer feel like a couple. I can help. As a Certified Natural Health Professional, I also assist in teaching others how food choices, herbs, exercise and thoughts influence overall mood.

"EMOTIONALLY FOCUSED COUPLES THERAPY" is an evidence-based treatment supported by 3 decades of research; it reflects advances in adult romantic bonding, development of secure relationships, and neuroscience.
I specialize in helping couples and individuals develop "connection" in their marriages and relationships. To illustrate, your partner seems "distant" lately- so you seek reassurance. Instead of providing comfort, he or she "pulls away" in anticipation of triggering an argument. In turn, your insecurity grows yet bigger. Over time, the more one mate seeks "closeness," the more the other "distances." Partners become "stuck" in painful "circles" such as "Pursue-Withdraw." Both are hurt by each others "criticism" or "coldness"- and unintentionally trigger their mates' invisible "raw spots." Even if identified, "vulnerabilities" are difficult to discuss constructively without a "translator" (therapist).

Life is not always easy, and sometimes we need more support than our friends and family can give us, especially when we are going through difficult transitions, relationship disappointments and when life surprises us with unexpected turns and sometimes trauma. When these things happen, we may need someone to walk with us gently looking at where this chapter or narrative came from, pulling or pushing us in a direction we don’t want to go.
