Struggling in Your Relationship? You're Not Alone.

Are you feeling stuck, unheard, or hurt in your relationship or marriage? Do you suspect you might be in an emotionally or physically abusive situation—but aren't sure what qualifies as abuse? Maybe you're preparing for marriage and want to avoid becoming part of the 50% of couples who divorce. Or perhaps you’re wrestling with anger that’s impacting the people you care about.

Whatever your situation, one thing is certain: you don’t have to go through it alone.

Many people suffer in silence, unaware that what they're experiencing is unhealthy—or unsure of where to turn. Too often, couples wait until it’s almost too late to seek support.

My own journey began early. In first grade, I was already fascinated by relationships (yes, I had a serious crush on my teacher and wrote her weekly love notes!). As I grew older, that interest only deepened—especially during my own marriage counseling. While some resist the process, I was captivated. I wanted to understand relationships—and myself—better.

Years later, a neighbor and local therapist invited me to lead domestic violence support groups. That opened the door to what became my passion: helping others navigate relationships with more awareness and emotional health.

Since then, I’ve trained in marriage and premarital coaching, anger management, and domestic violence intervention. I’ve supported men and women for over a decade—and now lead a Batterer’s Intervention Group rooted in cognitive behavioral therapy, alongside my coaching practice, Two Hearts Become One.

Coaching is not therapy. As your coach, I rely on you as the client to determine what

issues or needs you want to work on. Once these are determined and clarified, together we work on a plan. We develop action steps and learn relationship skills to use outside of the coaching session to accomplish your goals, empowering you as the client to make lasting changes in your relationship. I will coach you and mentor you along the way. This process is not about who’s right or who’s wrong, this is about how two people that love each other come together and do the work to improve their relationship and foster a deeper connection. Think of me as the coach for your team!

If you're ready for support, change, or just someone to talk to without judgment—I’m here to help.
