About

I am a wife, an empty-nester, and a Nonna to 5 grandchildren. My passion has always been to help others, whether it was serving our country in the US Navy or helping the Native American communities in Northern Arizona with my daughters. Now, my passion is for helping couples and families struggling to explore the problems in their relationships, the emotions underlying those problems, and coming together to reengage with healthy strategies for communicating solutions. Couples can have the same argument over and over or become disconnected and distant from each other. Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT) helps couples build stronger attachment bonds; you feel safe together, feel important to your partner, there is more flexibility in problem solving, communication increases, and there is a feeling of security. That same old fight is now approached in a new way.

My role as your therapist is to help you improve your connection, resolve conflicts, repair injuries, rebuild trust, increase affection and intimacy, and create a feeling of emotional openness, safety and love. can be hard work but you are worth it and as your therapist, I will be there to support you. You can bring about the change you desire. The walls that kept you apart can come down and the beauty of your relationship can grow. It would be my honor to walk alongside you in your journey to living an authentic and healthy life.

I have completed Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT) Externship and CORE training. I use EFT to help couples mend broken relationships so safety, connection, and love can be restored. I work with individuals with a holistic approach and choose treatment models that are best suited for my client's situation including Christian counseling when requested. Being accepting and authentic helps me to create a supportive environment. I am also trained in the Gottman Method of couples therapy. I believe either of these methods, depending on the client’s needs can be used with couples of any status and gender with great success.

My goal is to create space to help you learn new skills, break unhealthy patterns, enhance communication and build close, trusting, and fulfilling relationships.
