My specialty is in addressing relationship and sexual problems, anxiety, and depression. I am trained and experienced in helping couples with trust issues, infidelity, communication, and sexual concerns. My 20+ years of experience, certification in pre-marriage and marriage counseling with additional training by the Gottman institute of marriage and emotionally focused marriage therapy has well prepared me to help you and your partner spouse. I have a successful track record in helping clients suffering from anxiety and depression. Working together with clients, they improve their mood, feel more focused and motivated (get unstuck), reduce worry, and manage stress better. Clients have improved their relationship with them-self and others and improve their overall well-being. There is hope for you to enjoy your life more.
