Relationship Issues and Stress

Great to meet you!

Are you struggling in your marriage? Are you questioning how and what the next steps are in your relationship? Do you have past traumas that you are ready to process, but subconscious patterns still control your life? The clients I work with are committed to improving their relationships, working through negative marital patterns, and processing personal trauma. In other words, they are ready to experience joy, love, and personal growth.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I offer pre-marital and marital counseling using the Gottman Method. My goal is to provide couples with communication and intimacy tools to change negative patterns within relationships

What you can expect from our first session

You do not need to suffer in your relationship or individually any longer. The first step to living fully, is to reach out for support. I offer compassionate therapy to help guide and strengthen relationships/individuals to live fully.
