I guide clients from recognizing repeating relationship and life cycles into hands-on steps that change daily interactions and choices. In sessions—either in my Sierra Madre office or in English via secure online video—I work at a steady, collaborative pace: noticing triggers, practicing clearer requests, rehearsing new boundaries, and setting simple between-session experiments. The work blends emotion-focused reflection with concrete behavioral shifts to reduce conflict, relapse risk, or parenting strain. People seeking active, practical change tend to do well with this approach.
