As a 40-something Christian with more than 18 years of clinical experience in Marriage and Family Therapy, I have found that life is a journey of learning filled with twists and turns that hold the potential to be either the cage that imprisons us or the opportunity that grows us to a new level of development. Therein lies a choice that requires courage. It is a choice either to stay on the long-trodden path where we've been or to brave the new adventure of change. Christian Counseling is a place to find tools, support, and empowerment for that adventure! I would be honored to join you there.

I enjoy working with clients facing life transitions (to college, post grad, marriage, becoming a parent, new jobs, etc.
Life is not always easy and often takes a turn in a direction that you may not have seen coming. Whether you are in a season of transition, loss, grief, or wanting to grow and become the best version of you I would love to walk alongside you. As a counselor I work through a person-centered, adlerian, and trauma informed lense to create a safe space for my clients to recognize, process, and work through the emotions and thoughts that come along in life. I love meeting my clients where they are at and through therapy helping them gain insight and come to recognize their full potential.

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.
