Inclusive Couples and Relational Counseling for ALL Relationships
Empowering love across Georgia with virtual couples counseling services.
Navigating Relationships with Compassionate Couples Counseling
Relationships can be overwhelming—communication hurdles, past hurts, and fears of incompatibility create roadblocks. Navigating diverse identities, values, and experiences can feel risky and vulnerable and often become sensitive topics that we have learned clever ways to tiptoe around or bury under a rock. In protecting ourselves somehow we end up even farther apart feeling alone and unsure how to move forward.
No matter how messy things seem right now, you’re not riding this roller coaster alone anymore.
Listen, none of us were born with a manual on how to have a healthy relationship. We’re all just out here winging it, trying not to trip over our own emotional shoelaces!
Now, let’s get real. Speaking as someone who has gone down this rabbit hole myself in search of a couples counselor, I completely understand what you’re going through. Feeling nervous about entrusting the reins of your relationship to a total stranger, especially one who truly understands the complexities of your relationship? It’s like trying to win the therapist jackpot – a bit nerve-wracking, right?
Choose me for Relational Healing!
Why Collaborative Kaleidoscopes Counseling? Picking a good relational therapist is crucial; trust me, you need to find someone who knows the ropes. While I can’t make this decision for you, I want you to know I will be invested in our work because I truly believe the health of our relationships is the greatest predictor of mental health.
I’ve witnessed miraculous healing occur within relationships, and I have seen the devastating effects of toxic ones. Love really can be a battlefield, and I’ve been in the trenches, helping couples navigate communication hurdles, past betrayals, attachment wounds, you name it.
As a member of the LGBTQ+ community myself, I understand the worry associated with finding a therapist who will really take the time and effort to understand your unique relationship dynamics.
I promise, choosing me means personalized support, skills, and a roadmap to heal and grow. With training in the Gottman Method and Developmental Model, I bring an informed and intentional perspective to guide your couples counseling journey.

The idea behind a kaleidoscope is that it is a structure that’s filled with broken bits and pieces, and somehow if you can look through them, you still see something beautiful. And I feel like we are all that way a little bit.

What I’ve learned is growth takes curiosity, curiosity takes courage, and courage takes a willingness to be vulnerable.

Mission of Collaborative Kaleidoscopes Counseling
Welcome!
My mission is to bring inclusive, informed, and quality relational healing to ALL relationships in my community. I truly believe every relationship has a unique potential for healing and growth.
Collaborative Kaleidoscopes is a place where you are empowered to bring your authentic self to the process. Sessions are a time when you and your partner(s) can honestly and openly address your concerns in a mediated environment. Your experience and your concerns are valid. This means I do not take sides; instead, I will sit with you both in holding your perspectives while we work together to create new communication cycles that leave you feeling heard and connected, instead of dismissed, misunderstood, or even gaslit.
You will be challenged to take risks and stretch in ways you haven’t before. Many couples come to counseling with the hopes or intentions of correcting their partner’s behavior. I will dispel that myth quickly because, for change to occur, the environment must change as well.
In order for you to expect your partner to grow, you must also create different conditions to make room for growth and healing.
Ultimately, we will work together to support you and your partner in becoming the best versions of yourselves – as a team and as individuals.
