At some point, we all need help navigating life issues such as relationship struggles, grief and loss, parenting stress, anxiety, workplace challenges, trauma, and self-esteem. None of us can handle life's challenges alone. For times when it is too much, counseling is a process where we work together to promote acceptance and change. As a professional in the field for 20 years I have experience working with couples and individuals. I like to understand my client's worldview and then work with them to make life a little (or a lot) better. Life can be really hard and it is helpful to know you are not alone.

Not accepting new clients
As a counselor, I value having the opportunity to support those who are feeling down, depleted, or out of sync with their lives. I help engage clients in personal reflection and provide encouragement through times of transition and change. I work to build motivation for clients needing to move out of hopelessness. I am an experienced clinician who prioritizes providing a safe, compassionate, and respectful space for clients to grow. I specialize in addressing anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, and autism supports. My approach blends cognitive behavioral therapy skills with supportive, person-centered discussions.

Relational Therapists
How does relational therapy work?
Relational therapy was developed by psychologist Jean Miller, whose ideas stressed that having strong connections with others encourages better health and well-being when compared with a lonely existence. Conversely, poor interpersonal relationships do not foster growth and learning. Relational therapy also encourages trust in others and patience with others, along with better communication and less conflict.
Is relational therapy evidence-based?
Relational therapy is not well-studied, and it may not be as effective in treating certain mental health conditions when compared with evidence-based treatments like cognitive behavioral or acceptance and commitment therapy. However, relational therapy uses techniques found in cognitive behavioral therapy as well as psychodynamic therapy, which are both well-studied with empirical research.
How long are people typically in relational therapy?
Clients may see improvement after a few weeks or months of therapy. Like cognitive behavioral therapy, relational therapy can reduce symptoms within 10 to 20 weeks, at 45 to 50 minutes once a week. But like any type of therapy, improvement depends on the person and the severity of the problem.
Does relational therapy work?
While no therapy type will work for everyone, some evidence suggests that this therapy can be effective. Relational therapy can help a person manage problematic relationships as well as the mental health conditions that accompany difficult relationships like depression or anxiety. This therapy type may offer benefits that are hard to measure but can be just as valuable—including feelings of higher self-worth or healthier connections with others.
