I work with individuals and couples with a focus on assessment, trauma, and relationships.
Are you struggling with relationships, anxiety, or depression? Has daily stress become so overwhelming that it interferes with work, school, or parenting? Is a painful or traumatic event surfacing as a loss of control, fear, and profound sadness? Left unchecked, these concerns can negatively impact our health and prevent us from experiencing a full range of emotions. I have seen the transformative power therapy has in the lives of individuals and families.

Through individual, marriage/ couples, and family therapy, you will have the ability to explore your emotions, thoughts, behaviors, and relationships.
Through therapy, you can learn to rewrite your story, break free from negative patterns, and create a brighter future. I understand that significant life changes can be challenging, and in my therapeutic space, I am dedicated to providing validation, support, and guidance to individuals who are navigating through these transitions. My goal is to create a safe, nonjudgmental atmosphere where you can freely express your emotions, fears, and concerns related to changes happening in your life. I believe that every person has unique needs, and I am committed to tailoring my approach to meet those needs.

None of the stressors facing people and couples need to be navigated alone.
I focus on insomnia, trauma, couples and immigration. It is an honor to work with adults, young and old, who are managing issues of adjustment, traumatic experiences, insomnia or relationships. I work with people who have experienced loss of all types (immigration, death, divorce, loved ones in prison,) experiences of trauma (sexual abuse, traumatic losses such as suicide or homicide, and various types of physical or emotional abuse), and difficulties adjusting to the anxiety and stress of our current world.

Self-growth and relationship skills are more challenging than ever in our cyber-dominated world.
I help adults who want breakthroughs in their individual lives or in their complicated family. Adulting requires problem-solving skills, including mastering emotions that may threaten to overwhelm us. I help individuals and couples who are ready to tolerate the anxiety of making changes in their own perspectives and behavior. Others may struggle with unwelcome changes (break-ups, losing a job, stepfamily issues) and need strategies to move forward with purpose and peace. I can help you, too. Although I highly value the intimacy of in-office sessions, I also offer Zoom sessions.

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.
