Are you struggling to communicate with your partner? Maybe you've tried couples counseling and it didn't quite work - or maybe your partner doesn't know yet that you are having doubts about the relationship.
If you want to work on your end of the relationship before bringing your partner into the work, I can help. I can help you figure out all the complicated feelings you have about what to do with your relationship. I can also provide skill-building for improving communication with your partner(s).

We are all just trying to get through this thing called life. Whether it be relationship issues, marital issues, family issues, etc... There are times when we all need or would like someone to talk to. I am honored to be that person for so many people.
Relationships are central to knowing who we are and thus have an enormous impact on our mental health. We often downplay to ourselves that frequent or underlying problems in our relationships are "enough" to feel anxious, sad, or angry about. As a result we often misplace the source of distress solely upon personal failings. Much of my work focuses on helping you clarify what you want and need relationally, working out what is making it hard to communicate those wants and needs, and empowering you to try some new things with your loved ones.
