We specialize in helping individuals and couples navigate relationship issues.
Relationships have a huge impact on your quality of life. Everyone says "relationships are hard work" and "relationships require compromise", but there's not enough conversation on how to navigate those hardships or how to decide when to compromise.

If you are in a troubled relationship, going through a transition, feeling depressed, or in need of someone to talk to, we're here to help.

Our office believes that access to counseling should be easy and comfortable. I personally try my best to never turn away a client, schedule immediately, and work with any financial barriers. Although I work with a variety of treatment goals and treatment modalities, I am known for my work with children, trauma experienced populations, relationship counseling, addictions, military and advocacy for community health. When working with children, I always involve the parents and I attempt to assess in a variety of settings to assure I have the entire picture. Counseling should feel comfortable and safe.

I would love to be your partner in hope and be by your side on your healing journey.
Hi! If you were to put all therapists on a spectrum, I wouldn't be on it because I would need my very own spectrum all to myself. If you get this, we are a match LOL! God blessed me with the ability to connect deeply & personally with people from all walks of life & with various presenting problems. I believe the therapeutic alliance & trust is the most important factor in the counseling relationship. Don't get me wrong, the alphabet soup after the name is highly important & speaks to the credentials & specialized training of your therapist, however, lack of connection blocks progress in healing.

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.
