Making therapy work for you means taking what we talk about in our sessions and putting it into practice in real life— I know that’s not easy which is why you might want extra help. I often get asked what resources clients can do, read, or learn to supplement our sessions. This is an ongoing and updated list of resources, mostly books, I recommend.


Books For Couples To Rebuild Trust, Communicate, & Make Marriage Work

Clearly I’m a fan of Dr. Sue Johnson! No matter what I read I always come back to these 4 books to rebuild trust, improve communication, preserve friendships, and deepen your connection with your partner. 

Recommended Books For New Parents

You love your partner so you made a baby. Now you don’t know how you feel about that same partner? You aren’t the first and you definitely won’t be the last. You don’t have to do it alone and it never hurts to hear guidance on how to maintain your relationship with your partner while navigating the highs and lows of parenthood.

Books on Infidelity & How to Recover From An Affair

Infidelity can be devastating, like an Earthquake split your life apart and opened a giant crack to the center of the Earth right in front of you. Sometimes you really want to jump down that hole. But healing and moving forward is possible. You can rebuild and recover from an affair or infidelity and be happy again. 

Books to Restore Intimacy & Sex

Whether it’s always been a taboo topic for you, your body has changed, or desire has faded from your relationship over time, opening up conversations around intimacy, sex & desire can help you create a satisfying sex life full of connection and intimacy (and dare I say fun). 

Books For Stepparents & Blended Families

As an adopted, divorced, and blended family parent myself I understand the incredible difficulties and complexities of stepparenting and feeling like you’re inserting yourself into a new family — the good, the bad, and the ugly. The key to creating a cohesive family unit and fostering healthy relationships amongst everyone is patience, understanding, and a little bit of humor.
