How I work

By focusing on EFT, I am able to help both members of a couple develop an authentically secure relationship, experience the joy of being emotionally present with your partner. (If you are unfamiliar with EFT, you may wish to learn more on the “About EFT" section of this site)

I believe our relationships are the most important things we have in our lives and essential to our physical and emotional health plus being the source of our greatest joy. And I know change is possible even when it may seem complicated and perhaps overwhelming. I have experienced both — the pain of a difficult and tangled relationship before I had done my own work — and today, the joy of the supportive and intimate relationship I had always craved. The work I do to help couples is motivated by by my own experience and the deep satisfaction I get from helping couples to have the closeness they desire.

I am deeply involved in a community of skilled EFT therapists whose focus is to help couples experience great and successful relationships. And I continue to develop my knowledge and experience through continuing training and research.
