Gottman Referral Network

About

As a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 20 years of experience and Gottman Level 3 training, I specialize exclusively in couples therapy. I help partners break painful communication cycles, rebuild trust, and restore intimacy, respect, and partnership. I integrate attachment-based principles from Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to deepen emotional safety and understanding.

Our work begins with the Gottman Relationship Checkup — a research-based assessment that provides immediate clarity about your strengths and growth areas. From there, we create a focused, personalized roadmap so our time together is intentional, productive, and efficient from the start.

For couples seeking accelerated progress, I offer private intensives — often accomplishing in days what can take months in traditional weekly sessions.

Clients describe my style as warm, direct, and engaged. I help couples build the emotional safety needed to openly and honestly express their needs, bring up concerns, and share deeper longings without fear or defensiveness.

I work with motivated couples navigating betrayal, recurring conflict, high-stress careers, major life transitions, or a loss of intimacy and connection.

Investing in your partnership is one of the most meaningful decisions you can make. With the right structure and support, couples can move from disconnection toward a secure, resilient, and deeply fulfilling bond.
