We go into relationships with big hopes, a vision of a great future, and the desire to have a fulfilling life. However, somewhere in the process, difficulties arise. Certainty soon becomes frustration and optimism sours into disappointment. You feel discouraged, and may have thoughts of ending the relationship. Naturally, these painful and recurring circumstances are not what you expected. It might seem like a never ending cycle from which you cannot escape. Whether it's a new relationship, or a decades-long marriage, you're not alone with these experiences. Couples of all backgrounds and ages can struggle, but there is hope! You deserve to be in the healthy, secure relationship you initially envisioned. 

My approach to couples therapy is based on attachment theory using Emotionally Focused Therapy, as well as personality theory. I believe secure relationships can help individuals heal and have a fulfilling life. 

I serve couples from different backgrounds, cultures, and sexual orientations with the understanding that you are free to make the life decisions that better serve you and your world view. 

It would be my honor to help you achieve the secure and healthy relationships you deserve!
