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

My passion is to help people reach their highest potential. To focus on strengths. I have been a therapist for over 22 years. I work on the faulty beliefs and messages one gives themselves that holds them hostage to their anxiety, depression and poor relationships.

In the safety of therapy, you each will learn about yourself in depth, in addition to gaining insights into the complex dynamics of your relationship. This increasing of knowledge, communication skills, and relational tools can combine to create intimacy and connection

There is no mystery to therapy. At times, we all have, past regrets, feel empty, feel incomplete or unresolved in a relationship current or past. Difficulty feeling fulfilled whether it be at work or at home. Intimacy can be allusive. We explore & help find the answers

Premarital Therapy is the most requested form of couples therapy in my practice. Addressing issues that often don't develop until after marriage and providing conflict resolution tools to the couple to support healthy communication assists reducing future conflicts.

I approach marital therapy without assumption or value judgement. Each person brings to a relationship unique attributes which may unknowingly contribute to conflict or painful relational patterns. I work with couples to explore, understand and change these patterns.

After being married for over 12 years I know that a healthy marriage takes work. Our therapy together will reach the heart of the issues hurting your marriage and begin the process of restoration. Let's get started.

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