In my 25 years of practice I have been trained in many clinical areas of interest, some of which are, high conflict divorce, parenting, trauma, attachment, dissociation and somatic therapies. Currently, my practice leans toward cases involving somatic work, trauma ( single episode event and complex ) and dissociative disorders, as well as parenting and divorce. I also make time for adolescents and school aged children along with their families to achieve emotional regulation for the child and the system in which they are a part. The therapuetic relationship is priority in my work with clients and when achieved goals are too.

The thing I most enjoy about being a counselor is it gives me the opportunity to see how truly resilient people are. I've had the privilege of working with couples who believed that their marriage was beyond repair, and with individuals who were convinced that they were broken. And I've seen those same individuals and couples work to develop new ways of thinking and relating to others, and work to confront past issues that were controlling their present. Working with each of those individuals and couples was a great privilege, and I would consider it a privilege to work with you as well!

In my practice, I specialize in relationship and sex therapy.
As a sex and relationship therapist, I am passionate about guiding people in the journey of exploring their true self. As a person learns to love and accept themselves, they are able to experience a deeper level of intimacy and connection with others. The most gratifying relationship is one that involves two people who are able to connect emotionally, intellectually, sexually and spiritually. I look forward to working with individuals and couples who desire to reach a healthier view of themselves, their relationships and their sexuality. As vulnerable as it can feel to engage in therapy, it can also be a rewarding journey.

I strongly believe that the process of change is as unique as each person, relationship and situation I meet.
Do you ever find yourself wondering: How did I get here? Where am I going? Why am I even doing this? When thinking about your relationship, do you ask yourself: Where did the passion and intimacy go? Is this all there is to love? How will I ever be able to trust again? Has anxiety worn you down? Is frustration and anger constantly causing trouble in your life? Is fear keeping you from living the life you want? Is there something you can’t stop? If you answered yes to any of these, you are likely at a crossroads. Please read on.

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.
