While I rely on my two masters degrees in Marriage/ Family Therapy and Mental Health counseling, it is secondary to the training that life, curiosity, empathy & instinct have brought me.
Are you carrying emotional scars that have been ignored for too long, leaving you feeling numb? Do you struggle to fully engage in a life that should bring you joy, but instead leaves you unsatisfied? Are you burdened by guilt for missing out on precious moments as a result? Do you find yourself consumed by overthinking? Sometimes all night long? Do you feel emotionally disconnected from your partner? Do you carry anger and resentment that feel overwhelming? Do you prioritize everyone else's needs over your own, leaving you feeling insignificant? Do you feel lost? I have six words for you: The only way out is through.

The journey to parenthood is often fraught with mixed emotions as many have an idealized image of parenthood that can be shattered with the facts of reality, such as infertility, pregnancy and infant loss, self-doubt, isolation, lack of sleep, and strain on a marriage.
Recognizing that you need help is a courageous first step toward healing. Life is filled with twists and turns. Sometimes we run into a turn that is too sharp, and we hit a wall. Although we cannot avoid adversity, we can learn and grow from it, even as we experience feelings of insurmountable distress. Together we will work toward uncovering that strength and empowering you to lead an authentic life, filled with self-compassion and enhanced by healthy coping skills and improved relationships. I compassionately work with teens, adults, and couples undergoing life transitions, and suffering from anxiety, depression and grief.

A significant portion of my work is with adult professionals who are experiencing turmoil related to marital, family or work stress.
As a licensed psychologist, I can help you become aware of your obstacles and move through them. Personal growth often requires recovering from past hurt and learning how to behave differently. This is a process that requires a trusting, nonjudgmental relationship. In treatment, my overarching goal is to provide a warm and supportive environment for you to explore your inner self and make lasting change. Although the prospect of change can feel daunting, most people find therapy to be tremendously helpful. Often the process requires setting new boundaries and prioritizing the self in the face of demanding schedules.

Marriage Counseling Therapists
How does marriage counseling work?
Marriage counseling works by teaching couples concrete skills to communicate with one another and solve disagreements in healthy ways. A trained mental health professional works with both members of a couple to explore difficulties the couple may be having and helps them develop skills to address these matters. Couples who don’t have any difficulties but want to prepare for marriage may develop skills for the future.
How long does marriage counseling typically last?
Marriage counseling is a short-term form of therapy; the process may last between four and eight sessions. Other forms of relationship guidance from mental health professionals, such as couples therapy, are longer lasting, may focus on the past rather than just the present, and are tailored to the individual couple and their emotions, history, and patterns in the relationship. Couples therapy often lasts for 12 weeks or longer.
Is marriage counseling effective?
Marriage counseling helps many couples develop relationship skills that may not have been acquired or tested in a relationship; partners may be better able to communicate and address conflict following counseling. However, there are many different forms of marriage counseling, and this form of counseling does not have as strong an evidence base as other modalities such as couples therapy.
Is marriage counseling effective if only one partner wants to go?
Yes, marriage counseling can still be effective if one partner convinces the other to engage in the process. Of course, whether counseling is effective depends on the couple’s commitment to work on their relationship; however, the short-term, skills-based nature of marriage counseling makes it a relatively easy “ask” of a partner, and the hesitant individual may see its value once counseling begins.
