Relationships can be stressful at the worst of times and fun during the best times. If you find yourself reading here is because your relationship, or marriage, is struggling and you are feeling more like enemies instead of best friends.
Overall divorce rates are high and marriage satisfaction low. We are not taught in school the tools to do relationships well. These are important skills since most of what we do in life involves interacting with other people. Most people choose not to get help and live in dissatisfaction their whole life.
If you are experiencing any of the following:
Your needs are unmet
Constant arguments and non-stop fights
Disclosed or undisclosed infidelity
Differences in values
A sense that there’s no good way to communicate with each other
You feel asphyxiated because you cannot be yourself
Relationship issues can occur from several sources including childhood patterns and hurtful experiences from the past. I combine a variety of skills, training, and modalities to address your specific situation.
My clients report feeling more connected to each other after our first session.

What my clients say:
“My husband and I have tried counseling several times over our 16 years of marriage, but we were never left with any actionable steps we could apply outside of those sessions. They only seemed to keep us circling our pain. Ana has taught us how to really see each other, pinpoint our root issue, and grow empathy for one another (during conflict especially). She gave us easy homework to build connection as well as a new language during conflict that allowed us to feel seen and understood by the other. The result was amazing - the more we felt validated in our feelings, the more our issues seemed to melt away. Years-long battles no longer exist, or simply take a few easier moments to address with resolution being achieved. It’s been wonderful and we highly recommend Ana to anyone else seeking the same!.”

What brought us to coaching was our lack of communication, understanding and disconnection.
Coaching has helped us realize we're different people, with different needs, and communication styles. It has also helped us to listen and get to know each other in a deeper way. It is a straightforward approach compared to traditional therapy. Ana has helped us work together and look at our own stuff to see what each of us is bring to the relationship.

We have been to a number of other therapists before, but Ana has been far and away the most effective assistance we have received. She asks really good questions and fosters a growth mentality. She is also good at helping with emotional regulation, injecting pauses and time-outs, making space for one person to think things through while the other one listens, and modeling how to use skills that we need to work on.
