I have a Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy which means I am specialized in relationships.
We all deserve to feel heard and understood, but when life gets messy our relationships can get complicated leaving us feeling anxious, uncertain, or overwhelmed. I work with couples who are struggling to feel connected, or aren’t understanding one another. I help parents feel like they understand their child’s emotional needs and how to support them while also supporting themselves in the work of being a parent. I help individuals work through stress, anxiety, loss and trauma to feel aligned with their values and goals. I work to help you feel heard, understood and supported by me, and the people in your life.

I work with adult individuals, with couples, children and youth, and families at every stage of life. Times of transition, new challenges, work or school stress, financial concerns, loss, health issues, and just the everyday ups and downs of life can all contribute to temporary or long periods of difficulties in coping. Sitting with someone who is compassionate and present, can be helpful and supportive in knowing that you are not alone. My formal and additional training helps me bring many perspectives to the table as we travel together to find ways to work through issues which are located in the past or present.

I work with people of all ages, ethnicities and orientations. Anyone can utilize EMDR and that’s the beauty of this type of therapy. It is effective and can work faster than other modalities due to finding those root problems and working on them right away. This way you won’t have to use multiple sessions to figure out what it is. We can find it in the first or second session. I want my clients to be successful and not need therapy for an extended period of time to the point where they feel the need to rely on it. Let’s put you back in control where you are able to help yourself. I am also covered under Jordan’s Principle.

Marriage Counselling

How does marriage counseling work?

Marriage counseling works by teaching couples concrete skills to communicate with one another and solve disagreements in healthy ways. A trained mental health professional works with both members of a couple to explore difficulties the couple may be having and helps them develop skills to address these matters. Couples who don’t have any difficulties but want to prepare for marriage may develop skills for the future.

How long does marriage counseling typically last?

Marriage counseling is a short-term form of therapy; the process may last between four and eight sessions. Other forms of relationship guidance from mental health professionals, such as couples therapy, are longer lasting, may focus on the past rather than just the present, and are tailored to the individual couple and their emotions, history, and patterns in the relationship. Couples therapy often lasts for 12 weeks or longer.

Is marriage counseling effective?

Marriage counseling helps many couples develop relationship skills that may not have been acquired or tested in a relationship; partners may be better able to communicate and address conflict following counseling. However, there are many different forms of marriage counseling, and this form of counseling does not have as strong an evidence base as other modalities such as couples therapy.

Is marriage counseling effective if only one partner wants to go?

Yes, marriage counseling can still be effective if one partner convinces the other to engage in the process. Of course, whether counseling is effective depends on the couple’s commitment to work on their relationship; however, the short-term, skills-based nature of marriage counseling makes it a relatively easy “ask” of a partner, and the hesitant individual may see its value once counseling begins.
