You never expected to feel lonely in your marriage. You've tried to improve things but it hasn't worked. Now therapy seems like the last chance before divorce.  

​
​You want to feel wanted, but instead you feel: 
  • Afraid the relationship can't be repaired.
  • Frustrated that you are the only one trying in your relationship. 
  • Misunderstood for your attempts to improve things.
  • Afraid your needs won't ever be met in this relationship.
  • Anxious and worried you aren't a priority to your partner. 
  • And ultimately, you aren't ready to give up, but you don't know what else to do. ​

​I provide marriage counseling using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help couples understand each other better, communicate more clearly, and feel more emotionally close. My clients walk away from therapy with me feeling more secure in their relationships, more comfortable being themselves, and feeling happier in their marriages. ​

Welcome! You've come to the right place!


​I'm Liz, and I can help! ​As a Certified Emotionally Focused Therapist (EFT) specializing in military and veteran couples, people come to me for more than just tips on how to communicate better. My clients want to get down to the root of the problem so they can create changes that will last. I can help you understand the underlying communication pattern in your relationship so you change your marriage into one where you both feel understood, comforted, cared for, and accepted for who you are. It's time to feel like you are actually in a relationship again!

I believe that marriage counseling is a place for couples to learn to be fully seen and accepted while they build a sense of security in their relationship.

I am committed to a non-judgmental experience. I look through a lens that honors what makes us human. We are relational beings, hard wired to connect. What makes us different is where we want to be especially open, curious and never presume we are experts. I welcome all, including sexual orientation, relationship status, age, race, disability, ethnicity/national origin, gender identity and religious/spiritual affiliation.
