Helping Couples and Individuals
Strengthen the Relationships
That Matter Most
Do you struggle in relationships?
Feel unheard, disconnected, or like you’re just going through the motions?
Whether it’s with a partner, child, coworker, or even yourself, our relationships shape how we experience life.
I specialize in working with couples, individuals who want to strengthen or repair important relationships, and those who serve in high-stress roles like military or first responders.
Therapy is a place where we can make space for the kind of relationship you want to be in - whether that's with a partner or with yourself.
I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with more than 30 years of experience helping people improve their relationships and build stronger connections.
Over the years, I’ve supported clients through everything from communication breakdowns to deep relational wounds.
I understand how the demands of life, career, and past experiences can strain your ability to show up how you want to—in your partnerships, family life, or even with yourself.
My goal is to offer a space that feels practical, collaborative, and focused on real change.

How I Help
My therapy style is engaging and directive. I believe in treating all with respect, sensitivity, compassion, and empathy.
I will help you and your partner look at your unique style of communication and how you can become better at understanding each others needs.
My approach includes:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
I use CBT to help clients recognize thought patterns that may be fueling conflict or disconnection and work together to shift those into more helpful responses.
Solution Focused Therapy
This approach helps us focus on what’s already working. I’ll support you in identifying strengths and small, meaningful steps toward change—especially when things feel stuck.
Emotionally Focused Therapy
In couples work, I use EFT to help partners get underneath reactive patterns and reconnect through more honest, secure emotional bonds.
- We'll work on listening to the underlying emotional needs which so often get lost when arguing.
- We'll figure out WHY you argue and not just the WHAT you and your partner argue about.
Education & Training Background
- Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy from East Carolina University
- Certificate in Military Mental Health from the Center for Deployment Psychology
- 20+ years of experience in outpatient community mental health
- Background in supporting individuals and couples through complex life challenges
- Extensive experience with military, first responders, and public safety populations
- I operate from a trauma-informed perspective
“I believe we are wired for connection with others and enhancing those connections are a key to living a fulfilling, meaningful life.”
What I Help With
The people I see want more from their relationships – more understanding, more connection, more peace.
Many of my clients are navigating stress, disconnection, or repeated conflict and want to create healthier, more intentional patterns.
Whether you’re in crisis or just know things could be better, I’ll meet you where you are and help you get clear on what matters most.
Either individually or in a couples session, I help clients:
- Balance your own needs
- Communicate more effectively
- Rebuild trust after betrayal, distance, or ongoing conflict
- Understand how past relationships impact the way you connect now
- Address emotional fatigue, burnout, or resentment in the relationship
- Strengthen your relationship when stress from work, family, or the past gets in the way
You don’t have to keep repeating the same patterns.
Real change is possible.
