My specialty is working with individuals, couples, marriages, and families who want to learn how to communicate more effectively, live more compassionately, and take courageous steps to change for the better.
Whether going through life challenges, relationship struggles, or just finding yourself "stuck," one of the best things to help is to invest in yourself. Would you be willing to let someone come alongside you who is trained to listen more deeply, look at things that you may or may not have considered, and provide a safe place to be brave? Making life changes can be hard, difficult, and challenging but you do not have to go at it alone. Let someone come alongside you who wants nothing more for you than your absolute best!

Life is about Relationships: Couples, Marriage, Families, Friends, Co-Workers. However, broken promises, lost love, abandonment, endless conflict, lack of trust, addictions, loss of intimacy, anger and avoidance all create fear, pain, rejection and loneliness. You feel disconnected and are in search of acceptance, belonging, comfort and safety. It is scary to take that first step to seek help. From the moment you enter my office, you will have no doubt that your decision to seek help was the right one. The goal will be to create an atmosphere that makes you feel safe and comfortable enough to face what is troubling you.

I am honored to work often with couples who are struggling in marriage or parenting, men and women dealing with depression, anxiety, or other difficult emotions, and young adults struggling with figuring out who they are and how to get what they want out of life.
Welcome - I'm so glad you're here! If you're reading this, you're probably considering making an appointment with someone. Life is too precious to spend it burdened by fear, anxiety, pain, or depression. It's too short to surrender to anger or toxic relationships. It really is possible have peace and joy! I hope you will take a moment (and maybe a deep breath) and reach out. I am mindful of the courage it takes to deal with hard issues head-on, and that's why creating a warm, accepting, nonjudgmental environment is a top priority.

I understand how overwhelming it can feel to face relationship struggles or the deep pain of loss.
My ideal client is a couple facing challenges in communication, trust, or emotional connection, or individuals navigating grief and loss. They seek a compassionate space to heal and grow, with a focus on rebuilding their relationship or finding peace amidst their loss. Their goal is to develop stronger communication skills, resolve conflicts constructively, or work through the pain of grief. Ultimately, they want to reconnect with their partner or themselves, seeking guidance and support to move forward with understanding and resilience.

Everyone benefits from therapy.

Taking a “one size fits all” approach is not effective. I look forward to helping you on an effective therapeutic journey.

Counseling is a wonderful opportunity for anyone looking to make meaningful changes in their life, especially if it feels too tough to handle alone. It’s a safe space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings while making progress at your own pace. Everyone has unique challenges and goals, but the common aim is to make the most of this time and come out feeling stronger—whether that's mentally, physically, emotionally, socially, or spiritually.

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.
