I have 20 years of experience in working with people in all areas of this field, from child protective services, residential work, independent counseling, to insurance. From family to individual issues, I can probably help.

My interest is partnering with clients providing information and strategies that come from clinical research complimenting Biblical truths leading to deeper and more satisfying relationships within the family. Areas often addressed in therapy include; grief and loss, family changes, and communication styles many of which are positively impacted by increasing 'Emotional Intelligence'. Emotional Intelligence encompasses self-awareness, understanding and managing emotions, learning how to appropriately respond and connect to people/situations, and developing and maintaining healthy relationships. Adults, as well as, children often experience frustration when attempting to balance the demands of life while making and maintaining connections with others.

Do you feel stuck in unforgiveness, fear or reliving the past? You can't imagine a life not struggling. Tired of being tired and feeling alone and unseen. How do you get the noise of the thoughts to stop and how do you make the hurt stop when your mind tells you those feelings are irrational? Do you want to understand and finally heal from your past? Was that considered trauma? Are all these things triggers? The days seems long and the nights even longer. Are you able to serve and love on so many people and have so many people love you, yet you feel inauthentic and lonely?

These challenges surface in our marriages, with our relatives, our children, in our careers and even in our spiritual relationships.

Whether it's an unfaithful spouse, a difficult teen, family drama, or difficulty accomplishing personal goals, therapy can help you make the changes you desire.

You keep working and working and yet nothing is working. You know something is wrong with your relationship but you just can't figure it out. Your spouse is acting weird and may have even mentioned being "done". You want to have an emotionally connected relationship where you and your spouse communicate without frustration...yet each time you try you are misunderstood.

On the outside, maybe it seems like you're ok. But internally, you're depleted, overwhelmed, and not sure where to start. Most of us have experienced times in our lives were we get stuck. Sometimes laying awake night after night overthinking every worry and fear. Other times, we feel hopeless. Depressed. Lost. You know something has to change, and sometimes you might even know what has to change, but you just can't seem to muster up the energy or will to make it happen. If life isn't everything you hoped it would be there is hope. Connecting with the right therapist may be one of the greatest investments in yourself

Within each of us are a set of core values that we wish to be known for. However, when the values we profess do not line up with our actions our lives can become unmanageable and hard. Does it seem like everything stays the same even though the people and the scenery have changed? American culture pushes the belief that we must pull ourselves up by the bootstraps and push through but let’s face it there are times when this just isn’t possible and we need the help of someone who has gone through this before.

Gottman Method Therapists

How does the Gottman method work?

One of the core doctrines of the Gottman method is that negative emotions hurt relationships about five times more than positive emotions help them. Thus, couples require five times more positive interactions than negative interactions with each other. The therapist will guide clients on how to improve communication and understanding of each other to manage conflict and have their emotional needs met. The therapist will also advise couples on how to repair relations with each other when conflict arises, and therefore avoid lasting damage.

Is the Gottman method evidence-based?

Yes, this method is an evidence-based approach to couples therapy. The method is based on more than 40 years of research by Drs. John and Julie Gottman, the psychologists who developed the method. The Gottmans analyzed decades of data to draw conclusions about what types of interactions are likely to lead to specific results, and which interventions are most likely to lead to success. Studies have found that this approach leads to improvements in relationship satisfaction, intimacy, communication skills, and a lower rate of divorce.

How long does the Gottman method take?

The duration of treatment depends on the specific challenges clients face. Sessions are typically 60 to 90 minutes long, and an average course of treatment is around 10 sessions. In some cases, such as for couples dealing with a critical problem, the therapist will suggest an intensive course of treatment, with daily sessions over the first two to four days. Treatment is complete when the couple is satisfied and has met the goals they’ve set, and when the therapist believes they have the skills to continue on their own.

Is the Gottman method effective?

Through the Gottman method, couples can achieve changes that are real and sustainable. This treatment has been used for more than 40 years; the method is supported by empirical research, including randomized controlled trials that have demonstrated effectiveness in improving relationship outcomes for couples. Like any talk therapy, success or failure depends in large part on how committed the clients are to making positive changes and working toward results.
