There is space to process rupture and harm.
However, lasting change requires more than retelling the story.
We work at the level of the nervous system and attachment patterns — which means active participation between sessions. -
Couples repair begins only after acting out has stopped consistently and transparency is established.
If acting out is ongoing, individual stabilization is the appropriate first step.

-
Therapy focuses on healing — addressing emotional pain, trauma, and mental health symptoms. Coaching focuses on growth — helping you develop insight, skills, and accountability for change.
In therapy, I work as a licensed professional counselor providing trauma-informed treatment for individuals and couples. In coaching, I offer education, structure, and guidance for those ready to apply recovery principles and move forward.
Both approaches can complement one another, but they are kept distinct to protect confidentiality, ethics, and your personal goals. -
I specialize in betrayal trauma, sexual addiction recovery, and complex relationship repair. My approach integrates:
Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help clients identify and heal inner protective and wounded parts.
Polyvagal theory to support nervous system regulation and safety.
The Gottman Trust Revival Method and APSATS/CSAT frameworks to guide partners through relational healing and trust restoration.
I also help clients develop boundaries, rebuild self-trust, and reconnect with their values after relational trauma.
-
Yes — if both partners are willing to engage in an honest, structured healing process. Recovery is not about forgetting or minimizing what happened; it’s about facing truth, repairing trust, and creating emotional and sexual safety.
With accountability, empathy, and guided structure, couples can build a new foundation based on truth rather than illusion. -
The disclosure process allows the betraying partner to share the full truth of their behaviors in a planned, supported, and trauma-informed way. Both partners are prepared individually beforehand to ensure emotional readiness and safety.
This process follows the Atone–Attune–Attach framework and combines principles from APSATS, CSAT, and Gottman Trust Revival models. The goal is to create truth, closure, and the potential for genuine rebuilding — not re-traumatization. -
Yes. All therapy and coaching sessions are offered virtually through a secure telehealth platform. This allows clients to attend from anywhere while maintaining privacy and consistency in their healing process.

No. My psychoeducational and coaching groups are educational and skills-based, not therapy.
