Welcome

* I AM CURRENTLY OFFERING CLIENTS THE OPTION OF EITHER IN-PERSON OR TELEHEALTH/ONLINE SESSIONS.

I am glad that you are visiting my site. I am particularly excited to share with you my excitement about working with couples through the use of Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). My work is also inspired by the power of contemplative practices.

I specialize in providing services to couples through traditional couples therapy, intensive retreats, and Hold Me Tight  Workshops. In all of these modalities, the method that I use is EFT. I am sold on this model because it demonstrates high success rates (75%-90%) and low relapse rates. I am one of only seven certified EFT therapists in Asheville.

In addition to EFT, my work is also vitalized by contemplative practices such as mindfulness and contemplative prayer. Even if I never talk to couples forthrightly about contemplative practices, my own practice informs how I sit with and interact with them. Slowing down, paying attention to the present moment, and offering acceptance are at the heart of my approach. If couples want to explicitly integrate a contemplative practice into their work with me, I am happy to do so.

Because I believe that contemplative practices are so beneficial to our overall well-being, I am pleased to offer half-day Contemplative Prayer Workshops. I believe that contemplative practices have the power to change our brains, minds, and relationships.

I hope you will enjoy learning more about me through this website. If you desire further information, please feel free to contact me.
