WHO I HELP
I am passionate about my work with COUPLES and families. My clients tell me they feel individually supported, heard, and tuned into as we explore together what is best and healthiest for the couple as a unit. Most couples have great ideas and solutions for many of the problems that life throws at them. They just need a calm space and unconditional support in learning how to communicate whatâs in their heads and hearts more effectively, to speak to each other, to be heard, and to listen with a goal of understanding.
For partners considering divorce, I have experience with discernment counseling where you spend no more than five sessions discerning how to move forward with your relationship. If you decide that going in different directions is your best option, I will help you with an intentional divorce or separation. Even though it may seem challenging at times, with intentionality, you can leave your relationship with the integrity and respect that you both deserve.
With the WOMENÂ I have the pleasure of working with, facing life transitions is a theme that comes up quite a bit. Transitions like divorce, infidelity, empty nest, career obstacles, relational challenges with parents, siblings, or kids. I know from my own experience that it is invaluable to have impartial, professional support during transitions. Transitions often bring big highs and lows, excitement, as well as enormous fears and discomfort. The list of stressors is never ending. Emotional labor, mental load, work/life balance, and the impact of political stress. Whatever your stress, I can be an impartial and warm presence for you. Together we can sort and sift through your emotions, your unhelpful thoughts, as well as your intuition and potentially an untapped deep knowing.
Working with MENÂ has been so inspiring! Men can often grapple with connection in relationships, as well as with feeling down, irritation, and a ton of stress. Many men havenât gotten the opportunity to talk about their struggles in a safe place, where they can receive understanding and get the skills that help make relationships and life more harmonious and fulfilling. We all have a right to fulfilling lives and successful relationships that bring us a sense of connection and happiness. And that includes men.
In our work together you will develop compassion and understanding for where you are now, as well as for where youâve been. You will see more clearly where you want to go, how you want to show up in the world and in your relationships. You will learn a new approach to dealing with what is difficult for you and in your relationships, whether that relationship is with your partner or spouse, your kids, aging parents, adult siblings, friends, neighbors, coworkers, or boss.Â
