Couples Counseling
Intimacy and deep connection is often the first thing to go when the demands of life – financial demands, the pursuit of purpose, raising children together – take priority over your couples relationship. This can result in conflict flare ups, bids to address the concern about how the couple relationship is doing. My unique ’embodied other’ interview practice helps couples reconnect in deep and meaningful ways.

Family Counseling
Families are always responding to a multiplicity of stressors and often find themselves captured by the influence of these stressors, leading them towards relational habits of finger pointing, or making attempts to win the “blame game”.

A Better Understanding
What is Narrative Therapy
Narrative Therapy is a collaborative and empowering approach that views people as separate from their problems, acting in resourceful and interesting ways to address them. Whether someone is a veteran of mental health, self-help or personal healing, or they are pioneering a new pathway forward in life, Narrative Therapy helps people focus on the resources inherent in lives and histories.
We are story telling creatures and depend on these stories to transmit our experience to one another in the hopes that what is being shared will be honored, regarded and dignified. Sometimes our stories are recruitment efforts to seek support, other times our stories aim to speak truth to power. Stories are always speaking for us, and shaping the view we take of ourselves. And it’s in the careful review of these stories that we find the subtle and significant details that provide a means for us to take heart once again and forge a pathway forward.
“We are storytelling creatures, and as children we acquire language to tell those stories that we have inside us.”
― Jerome Bruner
