​
why do I do what I do?
​
I specifically decided to become a therapist when I learned of a condition called "vaginismus" that creates pain during sex for so many women - yet it is rarely discussed. Since then, I have found deep enjoyment in helping couples walk through the hardest parts of marriage - whether the difficulty be in intimacy, communication, or even an affair. It may sound odd, but I want to be with you in the most painful seasons of your life...to give you hope, and to show you how to make consistent improvements.
​
what's my therapeutic style?
I believe in challenge mixed with fun. Some sessions will be a stretch, as you learn new communication skills that you've never used before. Some sessions will be fun, focusing mainly on encouragement and affirmations for your progress. You set the pace, and I collaborate with you to set the feel of your therapy experience.
I work online or in-person with couples in the metro-Atlanta (or Suwanee, Georgia) area. Our sessions will involve

how often will we meet?
1.
Make space in your schedule for weekly sessions for the first 4 to 6 weeks. This will give us a chance to really get the ball rolling and create new change.
​
Remember: if we're changing a pattern in your life or relationship that isn't working, we'll need to be very intentional on the front end to shift directions to something healthier!
​
2.
After this, we move to biweekly sessions. This will give you time to practice what we've learned and experience change outside of therapy.
​
3.
You'll know when you've met your goals. Trust me :) At this point, most clients will choose either monthly or seasonal sessions to maintain all of their hard work!
