The good thing is that there is help.

I offer a working therapeutic relationship where together we can process feelings and experiences that can help change lives for the better.
I work with all types of clients ( couples, children, individuals) but especially marginalized groups (especially LGBTQ+) who need a place to feel comfortable, accepted, understood and respected. A place where feelings are valued, validated and matter. You may have been displaced, made to feel wrong, unaccepted and unwelcome. You want a safe space where you can express yourself freely and not be judged as society and others may have judged you. A place where you can be heard and work on feeling proud and wonderful with who you are and process negative experiences so you can be fully your authentic self and enjoy a fulfilling life.

Navigating the new normal, going through life changes, pregnant, have a newborn, loved ones lost, jobs furloughed, balancing all your new responsibilities of providing for your family, teaching your children, feeling isolated from other people and not seeing the light at the end of the tunnel are just some of the stressors that most people are dealing with right now. You are not alone. WE CAN'T CONTROL THE WINDS BUT WE CAN ADJUST OUR SAILS. Therapy can provide you with effective/powerful skills to help you feel peace, content and balance in your life.

I provide individual, couples, and family sessions.
We all experience personal challenges and issues in our lives. Anyone who is struggling with a personal concern can seek counseling. We are made to enjoy relationships with people around us. When a relationship suffers, it can bring sadness, distress and pain. Emptiness and void can arise, and it may lead to deeper confusion. No issue is too big or too small to ask for support. You don't need to handle it all alone. I can have you, receive help, and claim fullness of your life.

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.
