I use IMAGO relationship therapy to help individuals, couples and caregivers as they attempt to create healthier relationships in their lives. Together we figure out their relationship patterns, the causes of conflict in their relationships, and ways to heal those parts of the self that are more difficult to access. Through our work, clients learn to increase their flexibility, become more effective in their relationships, and live with more intention.
