You and your partner want to break free.
I am currently accepting NEW clients. You sometimes wonder if anyone around you could understand the battle you’ve been facing each day. It’s as if you and your partner are losing the love you once felt so deeply for each other. No matter how hard you try, it feels like you are stuck, fighting the same battles over and over again. You sometimes wonder how you even got to this place, and long for the connection and trust you once shared. But damage has been done and fear creeps in. Sometimes you both worry, “Can we heal what has been broken? Can we share that connection again?”

Waitlist for new clients
As a systemic family therapist, I am uniquely prepared to work with couples and individuals.
Are you wondering when the ingredients of your life and relationships became too bland or too spicy? Are you finding yourself working with the same recipe on repeat, even though it doesn’t fulfill what you are looking for? Are you and your partner feeling pulled apart by disconnection and arguments? Do you feel misunderstood at home or work? Maybe your life has changed beyond what is familiar or comfortable and you're not sure who you are today. Perhaps what was once important to you doesn’t feel as fulfilling, but identifying the missing ingredients feels challenging or foreign.

I also help couples regain connection and manage stress together.
You’re exhausted with trying to live up to everyone's standards. Your partner, your kids, your parents, your work. You feel like you can't get it right and you're just trying to keep it all together. You want to show up better for yourself and your family, but lately just getting through the day is a win. Your inner critic is loud and overpowering, pointing out flaws in yourself every day. You find yourself getting snippy with your family and playing back past frustrations in your head over and over again. You want to be your best for everyone but most days you’re too exhausted. You crave a sense of peace and rest.

For couples, my first goal is to help them rediscover a sense of connection and understanding.
Now accepting new clients (individuals or couples). My two niches are couples therapy and Enneagram. You may be trying to find a sense of who you are, as you struggle with patterns of emotional and/or relationship distress. Or perhaps you are a couple whose relationship feels disconnected, and you’re wondering if emotional connection can be found again. Whether you are trying to find “wholeness” as an individual or in your relationship, I’d love to help in your journey. Some of the emotional issues I work with include self esteem (self identity), anxiety, depression, and life transitions/adjustment.

I have specialized training to treat you and your relationship as a whole.
It feels like you don't even know how to talk to the people in your own home anymore. It hasn't always been this way, but for awhile now, you and your significant other just aren't on the same page. Maybe it feels like you don't really know your kids, ever since they've become teenagers it's like you can't communicate with them. You miss having the real intimacy with your spouse. You miss being close with your family. You want that again but it feels like there's this wall between you, everything is a fight, and you don't know how to fix it.

Couples Counseling Therapists
Does couples counseling work?
Research shows that couples counseling is effective; it can reduce relationship distress and improve emotional awareness, communication, empathy, intimacy, and overall relationship satisfaction. For example, emotionally focused therapy was found to be effective for about 75 percent of couples, and those benefits lasted at least two years.
When should a couple seek counseling?
Couples can benefit from counseling if they consistently struggle in their relationship. They may have lost the ability to communicate effectively, become entrenched in harmful patterns, begun to fight more than usual, broken the other’s trust, suffered from a mental or physical illness, or faced any number of other challenges. Many therapists offer free consultations, so if a couple isn’t sure whether therapy is necessary, asking directly can provide clarity.
How can I get my partner to go to couples therapy?
The decision to seek couples therapy is often driven by one partner, who then convinces the other to participate. When discussing the idea, the initiator should be direct and assertive. They can state the problems they see and explain how the relationship would benefit from therapy. In more serious cases, they can also explain how their relationship may suffer without making any changes or seeking professional help.
How does a couple prepare for couples counseling?
The anticipation of beginning couples counseling can be difficult—sometimes more difficult than the first session itself. Taking a few moments to reflect can allay those concerns: What are the current challenges? When and how did they begin? What do they want the relationship to look like in the future? Reflecting on these questions can help individuals or couples articulate their goals. Of course, the therapist will also ask questions and guide couples through the process.
