I have found being in a committed, long-term relationship provides some of the best times and most challenging times of my life.

Communicating effectively and thoughtfully can be more challenging than it sounds. Looking for ways to come together after painful experiences may require support.

I can help in moving forward to build a stronger relationship where deeper understanding and rekindling the passion that brought you together can be a reality. I have experience in working with couples whose relationships have been challenged by extended family dynamics, poor communication, and infidelity. I am queer affiliated and believe love is a powerful source of satisfaction for all humans.

I use a blend of modalities to include some Gottman techniques and Emotionally Focused Therapy in my couple’s work. I think you will find my experience as a long-time married partner, my strengths-based focus, and my sense of humor a good fit for our work together.
