Finding balance to thrive in different stages of our lives can be challenging. Even though changes can be exciting and positive, they can also push us outside of our comfort zone and our window of tolerance. It is important for us to learn to have patience and self-compassion for ourselves while we navigate these challenging times and hold ourselves accountable for our decisions. We will work together to find that balance for you so that you can thrive instead of just surviving.

Life does present numerous obstacles and hurdles we have to negotiate and so we need someone to journey with us through those challenging times. Relationships will not always be smooth sailing as there will be periods of rough seas that couples will have to navigate as well. I offer to help you process those moments that will pass. I am passionate about working with couples who are experiencing relational distress and need guidance to restore the love and happiness they once shared.
