Do you feel distant and disconnected from your partner? Have you been fighting more? Is your relationship missing warmth, trust, compassion, and intimacy? Are you getting stuck in the same frustrating pattern? Do you long to find and establish a loving relationship and secure connection? Have you been anxious, sad, and overwhelmed a lot lately? If you answered yes to these questions it's time to get help. Life brings us many challenges that are sometimes too much to handle alone. You don't have to struggle on your own. Get the help you need to overcome these difficulties and turn them into opportunities for healing and happiness.
I am a Certified Emotionally Focused Couples Therapist, an approach with the highest success rates in couples therapy. EFT is based on the research of Dr. Sue Johnson, author of Hold Me Tight and Love Sense. My work weaves together the latest research in attachment, neuroscience, and learning, with ancient wisdom. Also trained in EMDR.
I believe a safe environment and a compassionate understanding presence, free of judgement is the base from which we are able to slow down, reflect, explore, and grow. With over 45 years of training and practice, and my continued commitment to learning and growth, I have the knowledge, experience, and heart to support you.
