Marriage counseling that Heals in Colfax, CA. Restore Your Relationship.

I am dedicated to restoring the love & emotional intimacy in your relationship by learning how to manage painful and persistent conflict & rebuild your trust & friendship through research based methods. I offer Couples Retreats. Certified Gottman Therapist since 2006.

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

Most marriages are only a few tools away from having a great marriage. I find satisfaction in helping couples get the tools they need to be able to communicate in a way that gets heard. Having a witness (me) hear your problems builds accountabiity and understanding.

Specializing in couples and marriages for 25 years, I help couples move from conflict to intimacy. By learning communication skills as well as learning to appreciate your differences, you can remember the strengths that brought the two of you together to begin with.

We want connection- a space to be vulnerable and truly seen. But emotional intimacy is risky, and that scares us, especially with a difficult history! Instead of being vulnerable, we build up walls to protect us. Let's break down the walls and build a loving connection.

When entering a committed relationship we have a desire and expectation for friendship, mutual respect, love and validation. It takes work, it takes courage, it takes support and training to arrive at this ideal.

Together we will build your marriage toolbox! I work with couples to identify and break unhelpful patterns and cycles. You will learn tools to communicate more effectively, address unhelpful barriers and build bridges towards restoration and foster genuine connection.

Relationship therapy & zoom class - Not feeling heard? Withdrawing? With powerful tools from EFT, PACT & NVC, I help couples create a secure bond based on trust, support, empathy & "being there" for each other. Learn about attachment, the brain, nervous system & more!
