Asking for help can be difficult, but the relief it brings is worth it. I offer my clients 27 years of experience, knowledge, and skills. Along with my expertise, I bring attention, understanding, non-judgment, and compassion to the therapeutic relationship. My work is grounded in the Science of Attachment and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). We are biologically wired for connection; it's an innate need. We thrive and feel content when this need is met; conversely, we suffer when it isn't. For me, the joy of this work is seeing the partners shift from feelings of anger, aloneness, or disappointment to tenderness and reconnection. My practice focuses primarily on working with couples experiencing strife and loss of connection. We will discover how you got disconnected and rebuild closeness and intimacy. My work with individuals will help you gain a sense of purpose and belonging. Feelings of depression, insecurity, symptoms of PTSD will fade. Relief, increase in energy will follow. I don't just listen and nod in sessions. I am active. I engage and interact and ask thoughtful questions. I help you connect with and express your emotions. I act as a skilled and compassionate guide to help you understand what is happening in your relationship and facilitate a deeper, more satisfying connection.
