Long-term relationships take work and aren't always easy. If your relationship is struggling, or if you're thinking, "we need a tune-up," I'd love to help. I follow Gottman's research-based approach when working with couples. Do you feel like you and your significant other speak two different languages? A couple's biggest "goal" is often to improve communication and understanding. Other goals may include wanting to feel heard, decrease conflict, feel respected, gain the ability to accept influence from one another, be each other's best friend and teammate versus allies, and more.
I incorporate the Gottman Method in couples counseling and the SYMBIS assessment in premarital work. I have completed level 3 in the Gottman Method training.
Some say couples are often 7 years too late when they come to couples counseling. Do you want a better relationship and are willing to put in the effort to improve it
Circle of Security Parenting
As a Care Coordinator I have facilitated Circle of Security Parenting with many of the families I have served since 2019, and have always received great feedback.
My experience consists of one-on-one facilitation for biological, single and foster parents. I am looking forward to working with small groups because I see the need for parents to interact in settings that help them to know they are not alone in their parenting journey (challenges and all).
Please feel free to contact me and discuss your individual and/or group needs.
I am deeply committed to supporting families in fostering secure and healthy relationships. I utilize the Circle of Security Parenting (COSP) model, a highly effective framework that helps parents and caregivers understand and meet the emotional needs of their children. Through COSP, I guide parents in recognizing and responding to their child's cues, promoting a strong attachment that is foundational to their child's emotional and psychological well-being. My approach is grounded in empathy and a deep understanding of the unique challenges that each family faces. I offer a safe, non-judgmental space where parents can explore their parenting styles, gain insights into their child's behavior, and develop strategies to enhance their relationship. I specialize in working with both parents conjointly, providing a comprehensive support system that addresses the needs of the entire family unit. By working together, parents can align their approaches and reinforce each other’s efforts, creating a consistent and supportive environment for their children. I also recognize the importance of accommodating the diverse needs of the families I serve, and as such, I offer flexible scheduling options, including evening and weekend groups. Whether you prefer one-on-one sessions or group settings, I tailor my approach to meet your specific needs and goals. In addition to COSP, I am also in the process of becoming Mental Health First Aid certified, and an LMFT further enhancing my ability to support families in navigating the challenges of parenting and mental health. My ultimate goal is to help you build a strong, resilient family where everyone feels valued, understood, and connected.
