Because aging is inevitable, I have now committed my counseling career to the 55 and older population. Change is uncomfortable, but change is essential in order to move to a better place in life as you retire, as you lose a spouse, a child, or a friend. Sometimes the change is as simple as learning to look at something from a different point of view, it is an "ah ha" moment. The first step to change is trust, so I hope you will trust me enough to allow me to walk this challenging journey with you.

We know so much for certain about the human anatomy, but when it comes to our mental health even the line between the brain and the mind is blurred. Behavioral Health interests me because nothing is ever certain. Even when it comes to the treatment of individual illnesses, there is no set way of treating a patient, and often it is only a mix of many approaches that can solve an issue entirely...

As a pastoral counselor, I work with individuals, couples, and families to develop insight into their challenges. Sometimes we just need a judgement free and supportive environment to share our struggles. Stress, worry, and anxiety can weigh us down. Past life experiences can hinder us from being in a place of peace. My goal is to walk with and provide wholistic care to restore hope and help clients achieve a happy, fulfilling, and abundant life.

Symptoms related to anxiety, depression, and marital/relational distress are the most common complaints that I work with.
Therapy is about connecting with another person in such a way that you feel understood and valued, while trusting that your best interest is being served. There are many different ways to achieve this goal. My approach centers on working with people to understand their unique values and beliefs, which ultimately guides their experiences, and developing goals and strategies together to work toward their desired outcome. By asking the question, "what does better look like?", you are already on your way.

I see counseling as an effective collaborative working relationship based on mutual trust and respect. I was born and raised in Germany and have successfully worked with clients from diverse cultural backgrounds over the years. Cultural sensitivity is therefore very important to me. Prior to moving to Kentucky, I practiced counseling in Wisconsin and Minnesota since 2005 at various clinical settings, such as outpatient mental health clinics and in private practice. I also provide spiritual companionship and leadership coaching (see my website for details).

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.
