If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, marital issues, family conflict, grief, ADHD, trauma or other life challenges, I am here to provide a supportive, relaxing environment, and opportunities for growth and change.
My life experiences contribute to my compassionate heart and deep desire to serve those who are hurting, to walk alongside others on their journey to positive emotional and mental health. I connect well with women going through a divorce, struggling with the issues of life, teenage girls hurting from negative influences in their lives, couples desiring to reconcile after infidelity or even those couples who have just drifted apart over the years looking to reconnect. All of us can benefit from talking with someone outside the emotions who can empathize yet offer wisdom and insight.

If you are wrestling with relationship issues with others - marriage, parenting/co-parenting, divorce, infidelity, secrecy, blended family issues, emotional abuse or childhood trauma, or if you are wrestling with relational issues within yourself - shame, identity, self-harm, anxiety, and depression, call me.
Relationships provide a window to the heart of an individual like no other. Our closest relationships tend to reveal our most wounded places. Those hurts, if left unresolved, are carried forward and recast into our exiting patterns of relating. All our experiences, but most particularly our pain, become the filter through which we sift and construct our view of self, our approach to life, our capacity love and be loved, and our ability to trust.

Since my early years in elementary school, I've been drawn to the idea of making a difference in people's lives. The sentiment encapsulated in Leonard Cohen's words, "There is a crack in everything, that's how the light gets in," has resonated deeply with me. It speaks to the inherent resilience and potential for growth within each individual, even amidst challenges and imperfections. Guided by a strengths-based, solution-focused approach, I believe in illuminating these strengths within clients, recognizing them as potent resources for navigating life's complexities.

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.
