Welcome! I enjoy guiding couples to feeling more connected, confident, and excited about living in patnership. Together we uncover your inner wisdom, remove old patterns, and create a relationship that feels loving and fulfilling.
I am a strong believer that our intimate relationships should not feel "fine". In our sessions, we focus on strengthening the bond and secure attachment with your partner(s), improve intimacy, and change patterns of communication.
When working with couples, I incorporate techniques from the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy. Using these treatment modalities, I support couples in identifying their concerns and unmet needs, learn new ways of communicating, develop a new pattern of interacting that feels loving and safe, identify the root of the triggers or buttons that get pushed in the relationship, repair and heal past hurts, and rebuild trust and intimacy. I also support couples who are going through major life transitions, and pre martial counseling.
What can you expect when working with me?
Using a genuine and authentic therapeutic style, I support clients through holding space for emotional experiences, providing direct feedback, and identifying and pointing out progress and changes you are making along the way.
I believe strongly in the power of a safe, authentic, and connected therapeutic relationship and find this to be a key factor in clients success. It is important to me that my clients see me as a support to them, not as the expert in the room, and to share in laughter along our way!
*Please be aware that I do not accept couples as clients who are in abusive relationships. I require both partners to have a high level of commitment to each other and to the therapeutic process.
