Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist - LMFT, MEd, MA
Are you struggling with relationships? Are you having the same fight with your partner over and over? Have you lost that emotional connection you used to have? Intimate relationships touch our deepest relational wounds. That’s why we can be overwhelmed with the pain they bring and often, at points, feel like giving up. When attended to with gentleness and compassion, these wounds can heal and we can experience a new level of connection and love – one which we couldn’t have imagined.
I specialize in working with individuals and couples on relationship issues and past relational trauma (trauma that results from abuse or neglect in the context of close relationships and has a profound effect on a person’s development and relationships across the lifespan).My goal is to help you heal and flourish as a couple, to help create a secure bond between you that will last. I believe there is nothing inherently wrong with you, that the challenges you are experiencing are an opportunity for a new quality of life – life with a deeper connection with yourselves and others.
I am trained in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT) and Gottman Method Couples Therapy, which are the two most well researched and effective approaches to couples therapy.
