Individual & Couples Therapy - Learning communication & self-awareness skills improves relationships within your self (by increasing confidence & motivation while developing your identity) & cultivates satisfying relationships with others. Many people hope to be understood more fully & wish for improved communication so their relationships feel less tense & “just work better.” Working better often means less yelling; increased freedom to be oneself; trust that each person’s point of view matters & that there is a willingness for each person to be heard; plus there is often a wish to express difficult truths without hurting others.
Because therapy is a place to bring your full self: individuals, couples & families often find therapy satisfying, exciting & even fun. Learning communication skills that help people finally say what really matters provides relief & hope.
The work of improving communication is done in a safe & supportive environment. Clients experience the connection between feelings & needs; distinguish the significance between requests vs. demands or strategies; & are encouraged to identify & express their values in ways that are satisfying & authentic.

Couples Therapy: When we experience an increase in being understood our bodies (our nervous systems) become more able to cope; our muscles relax; our breathing becomes deeper & fuller; our heart rates settle; we can pause to make thoughtful decisions. We gain fuller access to all areas of our brains where emotions, rational problem solving skills & creative parts of ourselves are available.

I work with children within the context of their families by modeling for caregiver's beneficial ways to respond to their child's language of play. By responding in attuned ways to a child's feelings (expressed in their play) & modeling regulation behaviors, your child feels understood; learns what they are feeling & needing; & adopts coping skills while gaining trust in themselves.
