Create the relationship you’ve always dreamed of.
“If you are going to invest in anything, invest in your relationships.”

Love in the 21st century
According to the National Center for Health Statistics (2014), there are 3.2 divorces per 1,000 people. In 2014 the country saw 2,140,272 marriages and simultaneously saw 813,862 divorces. The American Psychological Association notes on its website “approximately 40 to 50 percent of married couples in the United States divorce.” Even more alarming is “the divorce rate for subsequent marriages is even higher.” As a society, we ought to be deeply concerned about these statistics. Our country’s families are in crisis.
Why I do it
Because I have been where you are right now.
Having grown up in a single-parent household, I witnessed the day-to-day struggles my mother experienced trying to work full time and raise two children on her own. I saw how one relationship after another ended in sadness and resentment. At the age of 11, my experience in child therapy inspired me to help other people heal from their suffering, and I set my mind on becoming a therapist.
Let’s get started!
LIGHT MY FIRE: 12 WEEKS TO CONNECTION
Through online interactive relationship coaching, you will gain the insight, knowledge, and tools to kick-start immediate change and ignite romance once again. This will get you between the sheets in no time! Here’s what you get:
- Bi-weekly couples coaching sessions to listen, learn and inspire
- Weekly check-ins by phone, text, or email
- Tools to take action now
- Accountability and compassionate dedication to see immediate results
6 MONTHS TO TRANSFORMATION
This package includes all the above, plus the added depth and long-term support that uncovers destructive relationship patterns that are reducing intimacy and trust between you. This is for the couple who may be experiencing an increase in conflict or emotional withdrawal; and, therefore, needs a longer coaching commitment with additional weekly individual coaching sessions.
1 YEAR TO REINVENT YOUR RELATIONSHIP
Sometimes you just know you need more support. You’ve tried everything but nothing seems to work. Perhaps there are children involved or there’s infidelity. Perhaps you’ve already split and are committed to making it work again. You didn’t get to this point overnight, and we won’t fix the problem overnight either. This is for couples who can benefit from the security and long-term commitment that unravels the complexities relating to betrayal, family turmoil, blended families, or couples in crisis. You benefit from knowing that someone has your back for the long haul.
PREMARITAL STARTER KIT
You did it! You’re ready to start the journey of a lifetime together. You just need a few great tools that minimize marital fallout later. (It’s kind of like marriage insurance.) Through online interactive premarital coaching, you will get the knowledge us old-timers wish we had from the moment we first said, “I do.”
- Three couples coaching sessions to listen, learn and inspire.
- Tools and Resources to help you develop good marriage habits now and help tackle issues that come up later.
- Intimacy-creating exercises that bring you closer and create a lasting bond that can stand the test of time.
- Support and guidance to help you get through those pre-marital cold feet jitters, and address the underlying fears prior to saying “I do.”
COACHING À LA CARTE
Just need one or two sessions every once in a while? Then this is perfect for you. This is for the couple who wants a tune up as needed or isn’t quite ready to commit to a package. Perhaps you’re new to the whole coaching concept and are more comfortable dipping your toe in the pool rather than jumping in the full monty. I get it. Commitment can be scary! With this option you just pay as you go as you need it.
WEEKEND IMMERSION RE-TREATS
Wow! You are the folks who are jumping into the deep end of the pool and ready to “just do it!” We will spend Friday, Saturday, and Sunday together with bells on our toes. You don’t mess around, and I respect that. Don’t worry, you’ll have plenty of time to enjoy one of the coolest cities in the country. Lonely Planet rated Asheville, NC as the #1 Best in the U.S. Places to See in 2017. Weekend Immersions can be added to any package or à la carte sessions above.
