Marriage counseling that Heals in Solana Beach, CA. Restore Your Relationship.

Are you longing for a safe connection? Want to feel important and loved? Recovering from infidelity? I practice safe, warm, research proven methods that helps couples reconnect, develop a secure attachment, and build emotional and physical intimacy.

Rooted in attachment, neurobiology, and client-centered work, I use experiential methods to help those who feel disconnected from others and themselves find the link playfully back to being in relationship. I serve children, adolescents, and adult individuals.

Premarital Therapy is the most requested form of couples therapy in my practice. Addressing issues that often don't develop until after marriage and providing conflict resolution tools to the couple to support healthy communication assists reducing future conflicts.

I work with adults in relationships of all kinds. Whether you are dating or have been married for decades, I respect your commitment and I am here to help you learn better communication, connection, and find your path to love and support. No judgment, just compassion.

We want connection- a space to be vulnerable and truly seen. But emotional intimacy is risky, and that scares us, especially with a difficult history! Instead of being vulnerable, we build up walls to protect us. Let's break down the walls and build a loving connection.

I listen to each person's goals for counseling, and then provide a supportive, non-judgemental approach to help the couple gain strategies to increase satisfaction and decrease stress in their relationship. Couples are encouraged to practice between sessions.
