How we relate to each other is crucial to our emotional and mental health. The health our relationships can affect the health of our wellbeing, and sometimes hardships can arise that make us feel at odds with the ones we love.

My job as a couples and family counselor is to explore tension in relationships and aid in the development of new, positive forms of communication.

Couples/Marriage Counseling

Arguments and fights between couples can arise from many complications in a relationship, from topics ranging from communication issues, intimacy factors, difficult life transitions, and more. My goal is to help couples foster new modes of collaboration and to call them back to their original love and care for one another. Counseling style and needs will vary from couple to couple.

Family Counseling

A family is a collective effort, and yet when family issues arise, it’s important to learn how to handle these issues in a collaborative fashion. I work to help resolve problems of blame, communication, and compassion, and help create a new means of understanding between you and your family.

If you have questions, feel free to contact me using the form below, or give me call during normal business hours. I am here to help.

Treatment techniques may include the following depending on the therapist:

• Gottman Method
• Narrative Therapy
• Emotionally Focused Therapy

• Analyzing Your Communication
• Getting to the root of the problem
• Enhancing Intimacy

When a relationship is showing signs of addiction, emotional abuse, sexual abuse, and/or severe depression, seek guidance from a counselor immediately, for your safety and your partner.
