Hope

Are you searching for Hope?

I'm glad you're here.

The fact that you are reading this

shows that you're not ready to give up.

There is still love and a longing for connection,

you just need help rediscovering it.

As human beings we are wired for

connection and a need to be loved.

When we feel disconnected in our

relationships it affects every aspect

of our lives. As the gap begins to

grow bigger and bigger between

us and those we love we lose hope

of ever finding our way back to them.

But there is a way. There is hope!

That's why I'm glad you're here.

We are about bridging the gap of disconnection that has been created by the negative cycles in everyday life. Together couples and individuals can work through feeling

hopeless in their relationships and

progress to a place where they can experience closeness, connection, and

safety in every aspect of their life.

Experience

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)

In therapy I use the EFT model. A substantial body of solid research, confirmed with outcome data, outlines the effectiveness of EFT compared to other forms of couples therapy. Research studies find that 70-75% of couples move from distress to recovery and approximately 90% show significant improvements. (ICEEFT.com)

EMDR

(Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a psychotherapy that enables people to heal from the symptoms and emotional distress that are the result of disturbing life experiences. EMDR therapy shows that the mind can in fact heal from psychological trauma much as the body recovers from physical trauma. (to learn more visit EMDR.com)
