I have years of experience with anxiety, depression, marital discord, trauma, and unwanted pornography use.
The human experience exposes us to many stressors, traumas, and anxieties. Seeking help to overcome and manage the symptoms these experiences can bring, is the first step in one's therapeutic journey. While this process can be overwhelming, and uncomfortable, identifying the right person to help manage these emotions is an important part of the journey. I value providing a non-judgmental space that allows clients to explore their emotions and start towards new growth and healing.

With over four decades of marriage experience, I am deeply committed to aiding couples facing challenges. Relationship preservation is tough but rewarding work. My clients' journey has taught me that the effort pays off, witnessing couples leave sessions with smiles is priceless. Equally significant, I assist survivors of abuse and trauma. I admire their resilience in overcoming discouragement, self-doubt, anxiety, shame, and isolation. Healing involves listening to our bodies, trusting intuition, and assertiveness. When a survivor confidently establishes boundaries, they reclaim their true selves.

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.
