    Finding Your Way Back to Each Other

    Couples therapy with me focuses on helping you step out of repetitive cycles and actually see what is happening between you, not just what each of you believes is happening. We look closely at what is within your control, what is not, and whether the ways you are responding to each other are moving you closer to—or further from—the relationship you want. The work is practical and clarifying: slowing things down enough to understand patterns, shift what you can change, and decide together how to build something more stable, honest, and connected.

    How I Help

    Gottman Method: I use this research-based approach to help couples improve communication, rebuild trust, and strengthen emotional connection — using tools grounded in decades of relationship science.

    Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT): This approach is great for identifying thought patterns that fuel anxiety, depression, and relationship conflict, then replacing them with habits that actually serve you.

    Reality & Gestalt Therapy: I use these to help you stay anchored in what’s true and present, so you’re not hijacked by the past or paralyzed by what you can’t control.

    Education & Experience

    I earned my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Tarleton State University. I am also a Certified School Counselor and classroom teacher with experience as a reading interventionist — a background that gives me unique insight into supporting parents navigating the educational system. I’m a Prepare and Enrich Facilitator for premarital and couples work.

    A Little About Me

    I’ve been married for 37 years, and I believe that matters. I know relationships take work — real, intentional work. Outside the office, I enjoy time with my husband, adult children, grandchildren, and friend group.
