Relationships are such an important part of our life. When going well, they provide love, support, and mutual happiness. When relationships struggle, sometimes it seems like everything in our life is struggling. I have a relaxed style when working with couples. I find it a privilege to enter a couple's personal and private world in order to change negative cycles and help to understand each other's perspectives. Together, we find a way to strengthen the relationship, speak each other's love language, heal through past pains, thrive through conflict, build mutual admiration and friendship, and communicate more effectively. I believe that every couple has the ability to work towards a loving and fulfilling relationship. In order to introduce change in your relationship, I use a variety of therapeutic modalities, including Gottman Couples Therapy (Completed all 3 Levels), PACT Couples Therapy (in process of level 1 training), IMAGO Relationship Therapy, Solution Focused, and other attachment-based theories, such as Emotion Focused Couples Therapy. In addition to comprehensive training in couples modalities, I am extensively trained in working with couples who have experienced trauma and affairs as well as couples who struggle with addiction. I have completed the Gottman Treating Affairs and Trauma training intensive, as well as the Couples and Addiction Recovery.
