About
I am incredibly passionate about relationships, love, and the deep satisfaction of finding a special person who is a safe place for your heart.
There is nothing more powerful than two people choosing each other, and nothing more fulfilling for me than helping you find your way back to that.
Whether your relationship needs basic communication skills or extensive repair from deep emotional wounds, I am here to support your unique journey.
It warms my heart to facilitate couples achieving long-awaited safety, understanding, repair, and connection in real-time, right in front of me in our sessions.
I am so proud of each couple I work with for their courage and vulnerability that allows them to reach a new level of trust, security, and happiness together.
What makes me different from other couples therapists?
I integrate two of the most evidence-based approaches in couples therapy: the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). Gottman gives us a research-based assessment and concrete tools to build communication, friendship, and repair. EFT brings depth by helping you access the primary emotions and attachment needs underneath your patterns, so you experience genuine reconnection, not just better skills.
After our assessment, I share personalized feedback on your strengths and growth areas, collaborating with you on goals and a plan. You'll know exactly what we're working on and why.
Our early sessions are tailored to what your relationship needs most right now. You'll leave with specific tools to use between visits, so your progress is continual.
You don't have to figure it all out on your own. I'm here to guide you every step of the way.
Let's take your relationship to a better place together! Call or email to schedule a free 20-minute consultation. I'd love to help you!
