Together, we can find practical ways to restore balance, strengthen relationships, and create a more peaceful home.
Many of my clients come from multi-generational households—families balancing parenting, care-giving, and shared living with grandparents or extended relatives. They often feel overwhelmed by constant demands, miscommunication, or shifting boundaries. These families want more peace at home, clearer roles, and stronger emotional connection. Together, we work to create balance, improve understanding, and restore harmony across generations.

I have learned almost everything of importance about mental health from working with my patients. Though I consider that I had excellent training, as with many things in life, nothing prepared me for the intensity of my patients' life-stories. It was a trial by immersion, but as with such journeys, it was also one of discovery. Patients set before me stories of grief, longing, despair, addiction, obsession, but also of surprise, joy, and abundance. At times, they were overtaken by the force of events swirling around them, losing their bearings and sense of agency.

I love working with all types of people; be it Individuals, Children, Families or Couples/Polyamorous relationships.
Anxiety, Depression, and other issues seem like they can never get any better. You might also feel like things will never change in life or that perhaps you are going backwards. When you first call, you will experience compassion and empathy from me that will assist you in making the decision to find resolution to these problems. In therapy, I provide a safe and non-judgmental space to hear your story and work to give hope to hopeless situations. Call to schedule a session and begin therapy. In addition to therapy, I reserve a portion of my practice time for clinical assessment (custody evaluations and mental health assessments).

Couples Counseling Therapists
Does couples counseling work?
Research shows that couples counseling is effective; it can reduce relationship distress and improve emotional awareness, communication, empathy, intimacy, and overall relationship satisfaction. For example, emotionally focused therapy was found to be effective for about 75 percent of couples, and those benefits lasted at least two years.
When should a couple seek counseling?
Couples can benefit from counseling if they consistently struggle in their relationship. They may have lost the ability to communicate effectively, become entrenched in harmful patterns, begun to fight more than usual, broken the other’s trust, suffered from a mental or physical illness, or faced any number of other challenges. Many therapists offer free consultations, so if a couple isn’t sure whether therapy is necessary, asking directly can provide clarity.
How can I get my partner to go to couples therapy?
The decision to seek couples therapy is often driven by one partner, who then convinces the other to participate. When discussing the idea, the initiator should be direct and assertive. They can state the problems they see and explain how the relationship would benefit from therapy. In more serious cases, they can also explain how their relationship may suffer without making any changes or seeking professional help.
How does a couple prepare for couples counseling?
The anticipation of beginning couples counseling can be difficult—sometimes more difficult than the first session itself. Taking a few moments to reflect can allay those concerns: What are the current challenges? When and how did they begin? What do they want the relationship to look like in the future? Reflecting on these questions can help individuals or couples articulate their goals. Of course, the therapist will also ask questions and guide couples through the process.
