I work exclusively with couples to create a secure functioning relationship where collaboration, cooperation and communication are enhanced. I believe all decisions in the relationship must serve both the individual and the couple for mutual harmony. Too often life is challenging, my hope for all couples is they can begin to see one another as trusted allies, the one who provides shelter from the storm, and the place where they find safety and security. I work with couples seeking premarital support, communication issues, intimacy, sex, parenting, infertility, betrayal, remarriage, step-parenting, finance, or breaking up.
As a trained couples therapist I work with the Psychobiological Approach to Couples Therapy (PACT) developed by Dr. Stan Tatkin. As an avid learner and someone deeply committed to the well-being of my couples I continue to pursue ongoing training directly from Dr. Tatkin and his team of certified clinicians.
There is nothing more rewarding for me than to see couples create increased secure functioning in their relationship and gain tools that will change their partnership for a lifetime. Using the PACT framework I work with longer sessions (3-hour intake and 2-hour subsequent sessions). Together we set our relationship goals and track our progress closely.
