I am credentialed by the American Society of Clinical Hypnosis, was a clinical member of the Association of Marriage Therapists and worked as an R.
Each client is unique with his or her own needs and goals. It is critical to understand what each client wants and why, before a therapeutic relationship can be established and therapy move forward. Initial sessions explore goals, time frames, and needs, as well as determine if the therapist and client are a good fit. Therapy may be short or long term.

Since my post-master's training and license are in marriage and family therapy, I see people as part of their "systems" -- their history, family, culture, beliefs, current relationships and jobs.
My job is to help people live more happily. I listen on several levels, so we can understand together what is troubling you, what you would really like to be and to do, what might be holding you back, how your relationships could provide richer and safer support, and what matters most in your life.
I practice in Tucson AZ, and find phone and Skype sessions to be very productive. I'm licensed in New Mexico and Massachusetts as well as in Arizona.

I treat couples at all stages of relationship, from pre- marital (or pre-commitment), to active parenting, to mature and "empty nest"; any couple wanting to reset their relationship.
Are you worried about your future together? Fighting too much, too often, too intensely? Or the opposite: avoiding conflict for fear of getting lost in it. Conflicts that are avoided or are too long and too intense and too difficult to recover from will all weigh you down. You know that things can be easier: you know you could communicate more efficiently, smarter, and get to have fun together on the other side this. What you need then is a therapist who can diagnose communicational difficulties and engineer solutions that keep you out of the same trouble in the future.

I am passionate about helping others find healing from the complexities of life. I treat a variety of mental health concerns and work with all people across the lifespan from a trauma informed, neurodivergent affirming, humanistic, and attachment-based theoretical lens. I have found that therapy works best and is most meaningful when it is individualistic which is why I am fond of a prescriptive approach to therapy.

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.
