About

Our happiness in life is often dependent on the quality of our relationships. Struggles with communication, dysfunctional patterns of relating, and wounds from the past can leave a potentially great relationship in tatters. If you and your partner are struggling, you are recovering from divorce, or are newly entering the dating scene, I’m here to help. With extensive training and experience in couple’s counseling and healing of relationship issues of all kinds, I provide a safe, kind, and insightful approach that will get you back on track to create loving, supportive, and satisfying relationships.
Relationships inevitably bring us up against our most painful unresolved emotional wounding from the past. My mindfulness-based experiential approach harnesses the potential of these conflicts, together with your natural drive to seek healing and growth, to propel you to new levels of self-awareness, healing, intimacy, and personal growth.
