About My Clients
I help couples who are in conflict talk rather than argue. I help marriages who have experienced infidelity and affairs. Marriages can be restored. Blended families, remarried, or single parents need help . Let's talk about how to improve your family and bring out the best in everyone. I can provide that help. I will work with your family to create changes that promote growth and development. I can't wait to meet your family.
My Background and Approach
I use the Gottman method and Emotional Focused Therapy for couples. Gottman has over 40 years of research to prove it effectiveness. As a former elementary teacher, I know feeling safe, seen, soothed, and secure precedes talking about feelings. Therefore, my approach is attachment based for individuals. Everyone needs help sometimes, and no one has all the answers. Seeking help for pills, alcohol, depression, anxiety, or conflict with your partner is not weak. On the contrary, strong people don't mind asking for help. Let's get together and see what your family needs.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I am a Christian marriage and family counselor. Therefore, I am for marriage. Divorce or affairs are symptoms not the cause of marriage difficulties. I believe if you are divorced, or a single parent, you have the hardest job of all. I will support you and help you with anxiety, panic, or stress that occurs when you have no one to lean on. Depression and anxiety have increased this year and seeking help is a brave action. I believe just like everyone has physical health, everyone has mental health. No one has to do life alone. There is hope and help available.
