Couples Counseling

I provide couples counseling in Corpus Christi with a holistic, integrative approach that blends somatic therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), archetypal psychology, and guided imagery. My focus is helping couples strengthen connection, resolve conflict, and build healthier families.

LPC Supervision

As an LPC-S with over 30 years of counseling and nursing experience, I also provide LPC Supervision in Corpus Christi for new counselors. My supervision emphasizes trauma recovery, couples therapy, somatic and holistic approaches, and ethical, compassionate practice — preparing future therapists to support healthy families and communities.

Hypnosis Services

Hypnosis is a safe, evidence-based approach that helps clients access the subconscious mind to create meaningful change. As a Board-Certified Hypnotherapist (Fellow), I integrate hypnosis with counseling to support individuals and couples who want to overcome patterns that feel “stuck.”

• Stress & Anxiety Relief – Calm the nervous system, reduce panic, and build healthier coping tools.

• Behavioral Change – Address habits such as emotional eating, smoking, or compulsive behaviors.

• Women’s Health & Fertility – Support through fertility challenges, pregnancy, birth preparation, postpartum recovery, and women’s wellness concerns.

• Trauma Recovery – Use gentle hypnotic processes to release stored emotional patterns while remaining safe and grounded.

• Relationship Support – Strengthen intimacy and communication by uncovering subconscious blocks that may interfere with closeness.

All Couples Welcome 

I work with couples of every background and identity, including all faiths, cultural traditions, and sexual orientations. Whether you are married or unmarried, same-sex or opposite-sex, spiritual or non-religious, you are welcome here. My counseling approach honors diversity while providing a safe, compassionate space for healing and growth.

Counseling Services Offered for Couples

I offer couples counseling in Corpus Christi for a wide range of challenges, including:

• Creating Healthy Families

• Life transitions and stress management

• Infertility Stress, Pregnancy, Birth and Postpartum Challenges 

• Navigating caregiving and aging parent concerns

• Empty nest adjustments

• Improving communication and conflict resolution

* Important Note: I do not provide counseling for couples who are actively continuing in abusive or violent relationships. My work supports healing after domestic violence, but ongoing abuse must be addressed through safety planning and appropriate crisis resources.

Couples Counseling for Creating Healthy Families 

Couples counseling can play an important role in creating healthy families. I offer counseling for couples in Corpus Christi during every stage — from preconception and fertility stress to pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Each season brings unique challenges and opportunities for growth. Through somatic therapy, guided imagery, and holistic support, I help couples strengthen communication, deepen emotional connection, and face the joys and stresses of parenthood together. Whether navigating infertility, preparing for birth, adjusting after delivery, or caring for a high-risk newborn, counseling provides a safe space to stay connected as partners while building resilience as a family.

I support couples in building strong and healthy families by offering counseling around:

• Infertility and fertility stress — navigating the emotional and relational challenges of trying to conceive

• Pregnancy counseling for couples — preparing together for parenthood and strengthening connection during pregnancy

• Birth-related counseling — addressing anxiety, trauma, or fear related to childbirth

• Postpartum counseling for couples — adjusting to new parenthood, managing stress, and supporting one another after birth

• Parenting and life transitions — creating teamwork and resilience through each stage of family life
