Counseling and Therapy in San Diego
How many times have you thought to yourself “I wish I had an instruction guide” for your relationships? When things get tough, we do what we 
know to try to get back on track. Often, no matter how much we try or how much we talk about a problem – it persists. When this happens, it is difficult to feel truly connected as a couple or family.
Positive change is possible. For many of us the thought of reaching out to a therapist/counselor may raise feelings of insecurity. This is because most of us have been taught that seeking help is a sign of weakness. We take a sense of pride in handling things on our own, even when we don’t feel equipped to do so. The truth is, reaching out for therapy is a courageous, proactive choice to take charge and improve your life. Engaging in couples counseling and individual therapy is a brave step in getting what you want – a healthy sense of self and connected relationships.
If you are at a place where you are searching for ways to repair, rebuild or preserve your relationship– I can help. Think of me as your expert guide. As a San Diego Couples Counselor, I provide a comfortable, nonjudgmental place where we will discuss your goals and the obstacles that are getting in the way.
Using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), we will identify rigid patterns that overtake the possibility of closeness in your relationship. Then, we will work to create new ways of communicating that creates “a safe haven” in your relationship. My focus is on your primary needs – to feel close, secure and responded to – which underlie most of the conflict couples experience. Along the way, you’ll become the expert of yourself and your relationships – able to maintain positive change.
Individual Therapy
Engaging in Individual Counseling gives you the opportunity to explore obstacles that may be getting in the way of healthy, happy relationships. We will work together to heal wounds, resolve conflicts and enhance communication skills – giving you the tools you need to build and maintain strong relationships.
Premarital Counseling
Participating in Premartial Therapy is a unique opportunity to assess your relationship while enhance communication and conflict resolution skills. We will work to create and strengthen your bond, ensuring you can face life’s obstacles together with grace.
Couples Counseling and Marriage Therapy
The goal of Couples Therapy is to build and enhance a strong emotional bond. Sometimes this closeness is threatened by repeated conflicts or wounds that harm relationship security. Other times, the bond has never had a chance to cement. We will work together to create new patterns of relating that bring you closer together.
As a San Diego Marriage Therapist Intern, my practice is open to people of diverse backgrounds, ages and a wide range of emotional and behavioral issues. Couples counseling, premarital counseling and individual therapy sessions for the greater San Diego area are offered during afternoon and evening appointments Monday- Friday; morning and afternoon Sat-Sun.
