Clinicians

 Specializing in helping couples and families for over 20 years, I feel it comes natural to me. Translating what I hear to a way you're heard and your partner says “ Ah I get that” is what I enjoy. Helping you both communicate better and healthier in a shorter amount of time. 

My goal is to reduce stressors at home from work or motherhood by creating a partnership. I want to remind you what made you fall in love and return the connection.

We will explore what you need, why things are difficult and reduce defensiveness and any negativity. 

 Let's explore your needs and wants which might be different for both.

I hope to help your relationship become healthier or communicative again.

Im Gottman Trained Level 3 in couples counseling as well. We practice CBT and solution focused therapy among others. 

Im EMDR trained, the best modality  I have seen to heal trauma/ Infidelity and reduce anxiety and grief. It immediately reduces anxiety and calms your mind. Even with one session nightmares can be gone. 

Personal :
