Whether you are preparing to begin your marital journey or you currently navigating issues within your marriage, I am here to help. As we collaborate, we will begin to give clearer understanding and language to the unmet needs and unvoiced expectations in your relationship. By refining the way you communicate and navigate conflict, you and your partner will grow more capable of having healthier conversations—about the issues you already discuss and the important feelings that haven’t been voiced yet.

As men we often have a tendency to be stoic, avoiding our feelings and shutting down desires. Often this leaves us with a general sense of being stuck. Lacking a sense of purpose, or not having adequately meaningful connection with others, often leads to unhealthy coping mechanisms in areas such as sex, anger, or substance abuse. I work with men to not only address the behavior or issues but to also dive deeper, examining purpose, meaning and learning to express a more authentic self.

What is supposed to be one of the most beautiful and exciting times of one’s life can often also be filled with pain, uncertainty and shattered expectations. Many times couples navigating pregnancy, prenatal, or postpartum difficulties feel overwhelmed and disconnected from each other’s experience. I spend time working with couples, as well as with men who are navigating this experience with their partner, inviting meaningful connection and communication into situations that often have no easy answer.
