Marriage counseling that Heals in Buena Park, CA. Restore Your Relationship.

I believe we are relational by nature, and often, our "individual" problems stem from interpersonal difficulties. Couples and/or family therapy can help you find healthier and more meaningful ways of relating to the people closest to you.

I work with couples to determine the dynamics each bring to the marriage in order to encourage insight into how and why they relate to another in the manner in which they do. I work with families to promote the healthy facilitation of each family member's unique gifts.

Whatever "couple" you are a part of, a valuable aspect is knowing, understanding and respecting your partner and yourself. This involves the negatives and positives of the other. Learning is always a part of any relationship.

I work with adolescents, individuals, and couples with a variety of issues ranging from moderate to severe depression, anxiety, personality disorders, self-esteem, anger management, and weight issues to name a few.

In many cases, marriage and family issues can be fixed. That's the good news! You owe it to yourself and the ones you care about to work toward restoration and healing.

Marriage counseling is one of the most challenging and yet most rewarding work a counselor can do. I work largely from a Christian based Gottman approach that quickly assesses the unique problems within the relationship ensuring we work on what needs repair.

Each relationship is unique! With time and effort, you will develop healthier habits and and stronger connections.

As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I see clients through the lens of their relationships. Satisfying connections with family, intimate others, co-workers, neighbors, and friends are crucial to a satisfying life, as are our relationships with ourselves.

I specialize in helping couples improve communication, trust, and intimacy. Resolving challenges caused by breaches in trust and intimacy is vital to the health of marriage, as well as changing patterns and learning new skills to communicate and grow.

A healthy marriage takes work. Therapy will reach the heart of the issues and begin the process of restoration. Let's get started.

I have over 29 years of experience helping people and their families cope with a wide variety of relationship changes, adjustment, grief and loss. Using your strengths, I will help you work through these difficult changes to help you manage their impact.

In marriage therapy, I help couples break repetitive arguments and cycles of disconnection by uncovering patterns, improving communication, and fostering understanding. Small nuances are smoothed out, so each partner feels better understood, and the connection deepens.

I strive to provide a safe place a person can go and be themselves, with no judgments. I continue in my belief that resiliency resides in everyone. I truly believe that change is possible and that everyone has room for improvement in their lives (including me).
