I work with couples and families using Family Systems Therapy and Family/ Marital Therapy.
Are you feeling overwhelmed, stressed, and overly emotional? Trying to "fix" things on your own without success? Untreated, these feelings often lead to anxiety, depression, family conflict and increase stress; this prevents you from living your life to the fullest. Coping during stressful times requires talking to a compassionate professional who will treat you with dignity and respect. The goal of therapy is for each person to reach their highest potential in all areas of their lives. I treat children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families experiencing various emotional and psychological symptoms.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist I'm committed to helping individuals and couples succeed in creating change.
Every single person is deserving of authentic love and belonging. If our relationships do not exhibit that then we have to work to change it. No couple is perfect, but the happy couple is dedicated, devoted, and committed. Relationships can be challenging and sometimes have a way making us feel lonely or not good enough. That couldn’t be further from the truth. Couples and individual therapy is designed to encourage, uplift, help you create space for your partner and to connect with new skills and tools.

As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I believe that all couples and individuals should take the time to nurture themselves and their relationships. When couples get stuck in the same interaction cycle, the pattern must be broken. I enjoy helping couples to decode their messages to each other, repair bonds, increase security, and their rebuild connection with healthy interaction patterns. Also, as a Certified Grief Counselor I also enjoy helping individuals walk through their grief journey. Grief is as unique as your fingerprint, and by talking through the many grief emotions we can help you process and take steps forward.

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.
