As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, I work with couples who are looking to repair a damaged relationship, find greater emotional and physical intimacy, and achieve healthier conflict resolution. I work exclusively from an Emotion Focused Therapy for Couples (EFT) perspective, which is based on the human need for attachment and intimacy.

When working with clients, I first help them identify their repetitive and negative patterns, and over time learn to change them. As the process unfolds, partners begin to understand each other on a deeper level and develop empathy. Once this foundation is laid, deep intimacy and healthy conflict resolution become the relational norm.
