My Background and Approach
I’m a specialist working only with couples in relationship. My attention and focus is on the client's issues only. Being in private practice, I can dedicate more time to my couples with no distractions from other counseling situations. I utilize Gottman, EFT, CBT and other modalities along with a framework I developed that creates structure without strictures allowing the couple to work on issues of the right kind at the right time.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that people tend to have communication problems in relationships. Many people are not aware that in order to function positively as a couple, regardless of sexual identities, requires dedication and observation as well as a sense of appreciation. My job consists of coming alongside the couple, lending an empathic ear, developing a quality plan for restoration, providing insight to the couple into the causative factors involved in the misunderstandings, the growing apart, the confusion, the bias, the lack of feelings, dealing with infidelities, internet relationships and all the other various conundrums that relationships encounter. I continually attempt to work on myself to become the best that I can be, sometimes succeeding, sometimes--not so much. I believe the key is to rise up, continue to self-observe and to move on the positive side of life. We hear the term, mindfulness a lot these days. I attempt to avoid being trapped in the remorse of past mistakes.
