Now accepting new clients. We are unhappy in our lives today because we have wounds from the past that have been left unhealed. These wounds generate from our basic needs not being met in childhood, abuse, loss of any kind (death of a loved one/friend, job, house, security, relationship, etc.), an unexpected accident, or any other traumas life may throw at you. These unhealed wounds are “jabbing” at you today through maladaptive and numbing behaviors, physical reactions, and emotional reactions.

As a therapist my goal is to support my clients as they grow in confidence and strength. As a therapist and a client myself, I believe therapy can help us grow deeper in understanding ourselves, as well as believing in our own capabilities. In sessions, I utilize the skills that fit each client, as well as my dark sense of humor and non-judgmental stance. I have found particular enjoyment working with ADHD, teens, parents, people struggling with boundaries, those in the LGBTQ community, and anxiety. Many providers have a set modality for treatment; I enjoy working with clients to understand their personalities and needs.

Your internal dissatisfaction, emptiness, anxiety, depression and loneliness are the main motivators for counseling. It could be associated with relationships, work, grief, addictions, trauma, abuse or not being heard. These patterns develop when you deny your emotional truth. When you connect with your emotional truth, you are always loving, kind and respectful to yourself, others, to things of importance and God. When you connect with your emotional truth, life becomes more enjoyable. Reasons for living, loving and exploring seem possible again. The journey and many new possibilities begins here.

And couples who feel their marriage may be on the very brink of breaking.
I feel a "calling" to help adults and teens through counseling! I offer clients deep compassion, unconditional acceptance, and understanding. Often we believe the worst about ourselves! We lose sight of our own value, our own beauty, and self worth. We become depressed or constantly anxious, feel lost, maybe even broken on the inside. But, counseling can change that! I provide a safe environment that is consistently supportive, empathetic, and empowering! I will help you see yourself anew, grieve your losses, face your fears, and help you locate your deep self and reconnect to your life's purpose. A natural joy will follow!

Marriage Counseling Therapists
How does marriage counseling work?
Marriage counseling works by teaching couples concrete skills to communicate with one another and solve disagreements in healthy ways. A trained mental health professional works with both members of a couple to explore difficulties the couple may be having and helps them develop skills to address these matters. Couples who don’t have any difficulties but want to prepare for marriage may develop skills for the future.
How long does marriage counseling typically last?
Marriage counseling is a short-term form of therapy; the process may last between four and eight sessions. Other forms of relationship guidance from mental health professionals, such as couples therapy, are longer lasting, may focus on the past rather than just the present, and are tailored to the individual couple and their emotions, history, and patterns in the relationship. Couples therapy often lasts for 12 weeks or longer.
Is marriage counseling effective?
Marriage counseling helps many couples develop relationship skills that may not have been acquired or tested in a relationship; partners may be better able to communicate and address conflict following counseling. However, there are many different forms of marriage counseling, and this form of counseling does not have as strong an evidence base as other modalities such as couples therapy.
Is marriage counseling effective if only one partner wants to go?
Yes, marriage counseling can still be effective if one partner convinces the other to engage in the process. Of course, whether counseling is effective depends on the couple’s commitment to work on their relationship; however, the short-term, skills-based nature of marriage counseling makes it a relatively easy “ask” of a partner, and the hesitant individual may see its value once counseling begins.
