About My Clients

Are you feeling lonely and misunderstood? You're tired that the same argument keeps happening again and again. You don't know how to get through to your partner. If only your partner would listen, you could go back to feeling like a team. Or are you tired of feeling like you can never do anything right in your relationship? You've tried different approaches and it seems to just make things worse. I have worked with many couples struggling with issues just like these.

My Background and Approach

My goal in therapy is more than giving you therapy tools. I also want you and your partner to know how to use the tools even during the tough, scary moments. These are the hardest moments to use tools because we tend to go back to our gut responses. This is why insight alone doesn't create change--otherwise, after reading one book, we'd all be well on our way without therapy. Long-lasting relationship change is about experiencing successful moments of vulnerability & healing with your partner. Moments where you can turn towards them and share what's on your heart, and they see you and they accept you. I use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) in my practice because it works. A well-researched model, studies have shown that EFT helps 70-75% of couples become fully recovered, and over 90% report significant improvement. EFT is empirically verified to be the most successful of all the couples therapies over the longest time period.
