Creating and sustaining a meaningful, healthy relationship involves awareness, presence, understanding, and respect.
Relationships need time, attention, reflection and learning.
In my work with couples, I focus on cultivating connection and communication. We explore how to deepen a steady, reliable bond. We explore how to expand and improve communication - emotional, verbal and physical communication.
I use a range of approaches including family systems, the Gottman Method, attachment theory, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, hypnosis concepts and Non Violent Communication.
I focus on increasing both understanding and practice - learning and using specific skills and processes. There is usually home work.
I really enjoy working with couples. While it is serious work, it is also satisfying and fun. I have helped couples navigate many things - fear, trust, commitment, finances, expectations, parenting, responsibility, intimacy, relaxation, shared meaning, decision making and more.
I have a BA in comparative religion from Colgate University. I have a Master of Divinity, with a concentration in counseling (individuals, couples and family systems).
I have certification in integrative hypnotherapy from the Hypnotherapy Academy of America.
Twenty plus years in private practice.
