My focus would be to meet you where you’re at, appreciating your uniqueness/ beliefs and aligning with your values. I provide a warm, empathic, and safe nonjudgmental space to talk about the things that are getting in the way of enjoying your life.

When your marriage is struggling it can be difficult to see a way out of the problems! It is my goal to help couples to find new ways to communicate with each other and build on each others’ strengths to become a team that is unified and working together.
