Life's difficulties are inviting you to re-invent yourself. Choosing to take part in counseling is making the conscious decision that you want to make some changes and you want life to be better. Would you like to feel heard and understood? How about being interested in learning ways to help you manage problems, cope with anxiety, or get ahead of depression? I want to help you understand how old ways of thinking and acting may be keeping you from getting what you would like out of life.

Relationships are hard and take work. Do you feel like your partner does not listen to you. There is no emotional connection like there used to be. Living like roommates and barely talking is no way to go through life. Clients often tell me they feel like they are walking on eggshells afraid to approach their spouse/ partner for fear the conversation will go bad like it usually does. Don't you want to get your relationship back on track and rekindle the love you once had for one another. Having that third party hear what each of you has to say can really help.

I have experienced the pain of navigating complex trauma and betrayal, and I have also experienced the joy and peace of the hard work of my own therapy.
Are you struggling with addiction, or loving someone who is? Are you worn out from the chaos and despair of it all? Despair and isolation does not have to be your new normal. I have navigated the chaos and confusion of betrayal and worked through the process of rebuilding my marriage. I started counseling years ago to fix my husband and discovered the real me in the process and found a place of great hope, purpose, & freedom. Today I work with couples to design and rebuild the marriage of their dreams. There is nothing that scares me in the marriage therapy work if both partners are willing to prioritize their relationship.

Working in Mental Health for over 12 years, I've learned that people are literally trying to put the pieces of their life together just to make it through the day.

I can help you figure out these steps and heal from the pain the betrayal has caused.
You've just found out your partner has betrayed you and you feel shocked and heartbroken. Research and reading countless articles and books to try and make sense out of it hasn’t worked and you're still hurting. It’s lonely and feels hopeless. You see your friends and wonder if you are the only one that's been betrayed. On the outside, no one would ever know, but on the inside, you fear your relationship never be the same and it has to be something you learn to accept. The frustrating part is that you had no idea and were completely blindsided. You thought you knew who your partner is, but now you're questioning everything.

How does therapy for infidelity work?

A skilled infidelity therapist will provide a safe space for clients to communicate their feelings and concerns. The goal is to be completely honest about what led to the cheating and how it has affected the entire family to prevent it from recurring in the future. The therapist will help the clients work on rebuilding mutual trust and respect and developing better communication and conflict-resolution skills. If the goal is to remain a couple, clients will learn the “danger signs” for their specific relationship, and they will make a renewed commitment to be faithful.

How long does therapy for infidelity take?

Recovery from infidelity can take time, and it can vary from person to person. Generally, a therapist will want to see the clients at least once a week for around six months. Then the sessions can be arranged as needed, depending on the clients’ individual needs. While therapy may end or shift to an as-needed basis, it can take up to two years or more for some clients to fully recover from infidelity.

How does therapy help the partner who was cheated on?

When a client discovers their partner’s infidelity, their trust in the relationship and in the life they had together may be shattered. They often experience mental health symptoms, such as anxiety, depression, grief, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). They don’t always want to stay in the relationship; they may feel ambivalent or may even want to leave. Therapy gives these clients a safe and healthy way to communicate all of their complicated emotions and concerns.

How does therapy help the partner who committed infidelity?

Infidelity often occurs when one or both partners’ emotional needs are not being met in the relationship. Therapy can help this client understand why they cheated and figure out how to address those unmet needs without resorting to infidelity in the future. This can lessen (but not entirely eliminate) the risk of repeated infidelity. Clients who cheat may also feel intense guilt about deceiving their partners, a sentiment that they can work through in therapy.
