We can save your marriage/relationship by simply getting back to the basics, and I can help with that.
Throughout the past two decades of working with youth and families, I’ve always felt a great sense of urgency to help strengthen families and the communities they live in. We need stronger marriages, better co-parenting, healthy family relationships, and access to more community resources. I help couples strengthen their marriage/relationship by learning new ways to communicate and better understand each other to build solutions. Together, we will identify what's working and what's not working, and take smaller steps to bring about bigger changes.

As a Psychotherapist and Life Coach, I provide services to Individuals, Couples, Families and Groups.
Life is not always what we want or expect it to be, there are times when one's path is unclear and finding one's way becomes quiet difficult. However, if you keep on doing what you've always done, you will keep on getting what you have always gotten. If you are not living your best life it is time to make a committment to yourself and dedicate the time and energy to increase the quality of your life. I provide a safe and nuturing enviornment in which positive change can occur. Making yourself priority is absolutely a necessity.

I help partners identify goals they need to work on in order to create their ideal relationship(s).
Growth is recognizing all conflict is not bad conflict. You deserve nonjudgmental support as you navigate conversations around what happens next in your relationship. I work with individuals to unpack examples of relationships they saw as children and discover what they want in life. The world of Ethical Non-Monogamy can bring up fears; fear of abandonment, fear of not being enough, or fear of losing your current value system. As a trained relationship therapist, I skillfully challenge each partner to recognize their negative responses and personal baggage. What happens next is a desire to break the cycle and start anew.

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.
