I am deeply curious about human relationships; the conditions that make them mutually satisfying and joyful as well as how they can go wrong leaving people feeling in pain, lonely or unworthy. My practice consists of couples and adults whose relationships with themselves and/or others are in disrepair. We all have many relationships. Yet, the more personal and intimate they are, the more distressing and challenging they can be at one time or another. I encourage individuals and couples looking to discover greater relational joy and willing to look both inward and outward for more satisfying life solutions to contact me.
What to expect? Relationship healing usually consists of some combination of insight (self awareness) and behavior change (breaking bad habits). Individuals and couples learn to recognize and de-code thoughts, feelings and behaviors toward self and others developed over a lifetime that interfere with relational safety and explore more rewarding skills.
I am a therapist, husband and father of two now adult children. I have also studied with several recognized leaders in the couples and family systems fields and acquired proven skills that promote relational healing. Indeed, we can learn to change our relationship with our relationship. Sick and tired of feeling sick and tired? You can choose to change.
