Focusing on goals helps highlight not only your vision for the relationship but also challenges for that vision.
Hi! I'm Dani, and I see couples. Whether you are doing the work of repairing, growing, or separating, couples counseling is a path to mutual understanding. For couples who would like to stay together, it’s worth reflecting on what brought you together in the first place. Things like how you met, what clicked, and why you stayed can inform what makes you hang in there now. I find that’s a nice place to start if you’re keeping the bond, sometimes even if you’re not. Wherever you are at in your dynamic, we’ll go into what you would like to see happen here.

My area of expertise is romantic love and relational compatibility. In addition to helping clients cope with anxiety and depression, I help them avoid the relationship mistakes most people make and learn how to find and foster a successful relationship. I have been teaching seminars on love and marriage for 26 years. While my clients find my style sensitive and supportive, they also appreciate that I go beyond active listening and reflection and challenge them with questions that lead them to deeper levels of insight and awareness.

Are you struggling with past traumas, anxiety, depression, or just feel disconnected in your life? Do you feel sometimes like you are "too much" or feel misunderstood in your relationships? If you have experienced trauma, traditional talk therapy is often not enough to create lasting change. A holistic, integrated approach allows you to tap into the body's innate wisdom. I assist individuals and couples in the areas of anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and loss, self-esteem, relationship challenges, sexuality, boundaries, spiritual and existential questions.

You are someone who struggles with anxiety and fear, and feels stuck in certain areas of your life. Change feels overwhelming, but you can't keep living like this. You have hopes, dreams and goals, but are often confused as to why you can't reach them. Most importantly, you are open and willing to do what it takes to find healing for yourself. My clients are individuals who struggle with anxiety, life changes, and relationship issues. I also work with people in recovery from addictions who need that extra, deeper layer of discovery, and individuals whose lives have been affected by addiction.

While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
