A great deal of my professional practice has been working with individuals, groups, couples and families, substance abuse, and LGBTQIA+ populations.

Let me help you get unstuck & develop skills to improve in the ways you would like.

Whether you are struggling with feeling good about yourself, overwhelm, grief, finding life meaning, unhelpful relationship patterns, or anything else weighing on your mind and heart, I would be honored to navigate your journey with you. No concerns are too big or too small-if it matters to you, it matters to me. I believe therapeutic success involves not getting rid of parts of you that struggle but uncovering your inner strengths to cope and reduce symptoms in healthy ways, in addition to acknowledging accomplishments big or small, and trusting the process, as change may take longer or look different than you may expect.

The feeling of being safe, valued, and connected is something we all need and desire. We also crave relief and healing when we feel hurt or crushed in our emotional, relational, or life experiences. At times, we may try to cope by putting more effort or energy into numbing the pain or distancing ourselves from the problem only to find that it really hasn'tbeen resolved, or that we're even more entangled. What would it feel like to be listened to and deeply heard; to have your experiences validated; and to not be alone in gaining perspective and empowerment so that you can experience safety, worth, and connection again?

I believe that everyone has the capacity to succeed in life and reach their full potential, but living in a world full of high expectations and pressure can leave you feeling lost and confused in your mind and body. The pain you endure through trauma, loss and grief, life transitions, and relationship issues can impact you in more ways than you can imagine. No one should have to go through these circumstances alone.

As an individual and couples therapist and a parenting coach for over 25 years, I am very experienced at working with clients in crisis. Often a marriage is in trouble or just not enough. Parents are trying hard to be the best parents they can be, but not succeeding. Individuals can be stuck, overwhelmed, confused or feel hopeless. The habituated way we cope often causes us great suffering and prevents us from enjoying our lives.

Gottman Method Therapists
How does the Gottman method work?
One of the core doctrines of the Gottman method is that negative emotions hurt relationships about five times more than positive emotions help them. Thus, couples require five times more positive interactions than negative interactions with each other. The therapist will guide clients on how to improve communication and understanding of each other to manage conflict and have their emotional needs met. The therapist will also advise couples on how to repair relations with each other when conflict arises, and therefore avoid lasting damage.
Is the Gottman method evidence-based?
Yes, this method is an evidence-based approach to couples therapy. The method is based on more than 40 years of research by Drs. John and Julie Gottman, the psychologists who developed the method. The Gottmans analyzed decades of data to draw conclusions about what types of interactions are likely to lead to specific results, and which interventions are most likely to lead to success. Studies have found that this approach leads to improvements in relationship satisfaction, intimacy, communication skills, and a lower rate of divorce.
How long does the Gottman method take?
The duration of treatment depends on the specific challenges clients face. Sessions are typically 60 to 90 minutes long, and an average course of treatment is around 10 sessions. In some cases, such as for couples dealing with a critical problem, the therapist will suggest an intensive course of treatment, with daily sessions over the first two to four days. Treatment is complete when the couple is satisfied and has met the goals they’ve set, and when the therapist believes they have the skills to continue on their own.
Is the Gottman method effective?
Through the Gottman method, couples can achieve changes that are real and sustainable. This treatment has been used for more than 40 years; the method is supported by empirical research, including randomized controlled trials that have demonstrated effectiveness in improving relationship outcomes for couples. Like any talk therapy, success or failure depends in large part on how committed the clients are to making positive changes and working toward results.
