Many people seek therapy wanting to learn the language of communication. Improved communication comes from a flow of connection in the moment and from attunement to ones own emotions and those of your partner(s).

In our collaborative work together, we will explore the language and moves of connection or disconnection that is spoken through emotions. I use Emotionally Focused Therapy  developed by Dr. Sue Johnson. EFT is one of only two research-based couples therapies. EFT is not about learning negotiation skills or making compromises. EFT requires that persons are 100% committed to their partner and to revitalizing the bond to their partner. My fidelity to EFT means I have a solid attachment-based framework, and a focus on emotion experiencing and accepting the underlying needs and fears we all have in our relationships.

Couples Sex Therapy

Discover couples sex therapy that is fun and comfortable. Explore the intimacy in your relationship. Revitalize sexual energy and sexual connection. Learn to share and talk about your sexual life with your partner. Common issues to explore in sex therapy are:  desire/arousal; mismatch in sexual libido and frequency; orgasmic issues. Sex therapy can be interwoven into couples therapy. For people who experience vaginal pain during intercourse, it is recommended to work with a pelvic floor physical therapist and a sex therapist at the same time.

Starting in 2021, I have been on the journey to become a certified sex therapist which includes clinical supervision for sex therapy. Certification is bestowed by and recognized by AASECT (American Association for Sexuality Educators, Counselors and Therapists). Learn more about what this means by clicking here.

I will consider sex therapy for an individual on a case-by-case basis.

Individual Adults

Leave behind therapy that focuses on coaching you to use coping skills or develop positive thinking.
In EFT for individual adults, I will be right there beside you as we dive deep into the ocean of emotion and make sense of, and see clearly for perhaps the first time, your interactions with others. We will explore where you get stuck in interactions with others and how you see yourself and others. We will explore past hurts and current triggers. We will work together to build your sense of emotional safety and to reach out to others.

Pre-Marital Counseling

Prepare your marriage just as much as you prepare for the big day. Research has shown that when couples engage in pre-marital counseling the divorce rate is reduced.

Ronda Evans uses the online, private SYMBIS pre-marital assessment system. Each person completes the online questions and then responses are shared in session. Pre-marital counseling is brief, typically 6 sessions or less and is not covered by insurance. Couples who are preparing for commitment ceremonies are welcome (nContact Ronda Evans to schedule the first session and for fee information.
