About
Well done, taking the first step to get counseling is brave. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I was a teacher for 28 years, then went back to school for counseling. My specialty is working with women whose partners have problematic addictive behaviors due to porn or sex. I am a trained Certified Clinical Partner Specialist through APSATS. Throughout the year, I will have women's groups for the partners. I can counsel with couples or just individuals. If needed, I can help prepare individuals for disclosures. When Betrayal Trauma hits, it is important to have a 3-phase approach, such as Safety, Restoration, and Revisioning.
I am a Prepare and Enrich Facilitator for premarital couples as well. I love getting to help couples before they need help. My specialty is couples, I was trained through Gottman level 3. Couples and recovery as well as Couples with Trauma and Affairs, need specialized treatment. I will walk you through it on a journey to get out of a rut. The relationship is the client, not the partners. If the relationship is suffering the couple needs to have a specialist contain the wounds, grief, and trauma that are occuring with precision alongside the couple and their individual needs. It is my honor to be on that journey with you.
