We have options for both individuals and couples. If you are feeling stuck in your life or your relationship, we can help you to manage them. We also assist couples to re-connnect and to discover the intimacy that can often go missing at times.

We will help you to uncover what is getting in the way of living your optimal life and to build new skills to manage. If your relationship is struggling, we can help you both to view the problem in a different way, and to learn new skills to re-connect and recover the intimacy that can sometimes go missing in all relationships.

Most people will experience emotional problems at some point in their life, and all relationships can have conflict creep in and cause disconnection and distance. Despite theses difficulties, proper resolution can help bring vitality back into your life, and relationship coaching can actually lead to a deeper connection between you and your partner.

Therapy is a collaborative process of connection, information gathering, assessment, and practice. Typically my clients report positive outcomes with symptom improvement early on in treatment.
