Couples in relationships — like flowers in a garden — achieve peak florescence when loved and nurtured in a healthy environment in which to grow.

As a licensed couples therapist, I help couples struggling or feeling stuck in their relationships. It is not uncommon for couples to face problems that cause emotional disconnection and conflict as a result of life transitions, money, trust, jealousy, communication, pre-martial readiness, and struggles with work/life/family balance, intimacy, extended family, and blended family life.

As a licensed couples therapist, I help couples struggling or feeling stuck in their relationships. It is not uncommon for couples to face problems that cause emotional disconnection and conflict as a result of life transitions, money, trust, jealousy, communication, pre-martial readiness, and struggles with work/life/family balance, intimacy, extended family, and blended family life. My approach to couples therapy is grounded in Dr. John Gottman’s 40 years of research on relationships and his research-based interventions, which are grounded in his Sound Relationship House Theory. In my couple’s therapy sessions, offered exclusively as telehealth sessions, I help couples build the necessary skills to manage conflict; strengthen the couple’s friendship; remove the obstacles that hinder relationship growth; and enhance intimacy, respect, affection, understanding, and insights within the framework of the couple’s relationship. As a designated Gottman Seven Principles Leader, I host psychoeducational virtual workshops for couples because couples thrive best when they nurture their relationships. The objective of this workshop is to enrich couples love for their relationships providing tools and skills based on Dr. John Gottman’s New York Times bestselling book—The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work. Life is a journey! We all view things uniquely through our own lens. For instance, a couple can interpret the same art piece differently because they do not share the same lens. They have different life experiences and view each situation based on their past experiences. It also impacts how they view themselves, family, relationships, community, etc. When I look through my lens I view each experience with a sense of open-mindedness, curiosity, compassion, understanding, and hope. I wear this same lens as a couples therapist. My goal is to help couples understand each other’s feelings and needs, teach them new skills and strategies, and communicate with empathy and understanding within a safe, non-judgmental space.
