The Best Marriage Counseling in 94510: Benicia, CA. Restore Your Relationship.

In couples therapy, I create a safe space for partners to build a deep and lasting transformation with improved communication, mutual empathy, and a renewed (or new) intimacy.

In my private practice, I see adults, couples and children. My focus is on such issues as grief and loss, anger, depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress, communication concerns, impulsivity, parenting, sexuality and gender identity.

Over time, relationships encounter many difficulties- infidelity, dissatisfying sex life, lack of connectedness, frequent arguing. I will teach you strategies to repair your relationship and prevent future blow-outs.

I work with couples who feel under heard and under loved. They want to stop having arguments and misunderstandings. I enjoy empowering couples with the skills and confidence to create relationships that are loving, mutually supportive, and fun
