Life long secrets? Sexual abuse? Relationship issues, interested in trying the Gottman Method? Sex & Porn addiction? Youth sexual behavior problems? Shame spiral, depression, anxiety? You’re desperate for relief but nothing helps. Abuse nightmares & flashbacks are spinning out of control. You’re concerned about your spouse or child's sexuality- but don’t know how to help. How do you get your relationship back on track? Do you stay or leave your marriage? Feeling hopeless? Longing for peace? These are specialty areas I have successfully helped clients with for 24 years, in addition to my work with anxiety and mood disorders.
You’re not alone! Imagine a safe, private, & supportive space, where you learn strategies to decrease those distressing feelings & build your confidence to move forward with your life & relationships. I would love to help you become the healthiest version of yourself! I can help you see the big picture, decide what matters, & support you as you take action!
I compassionately align with clients to focus on your strengths while offering support & encouragement. I create meaningful collaborative alliances with clients to build your capacity for self-compassion & in turn increase your sense of worthiness, self agency, & accountability to yourself & your loved ones. Change is possible! Call or email today.
