Couples Therapy
Understanding Couples Therapy
Most couples who come to therapy aren't there because they stopped loving each other. They're there because the same fight keeps happening, because they feel more like roommates than partners, because something broke and they don't know how to find their way back. Sometimes they come because they want to...and sometimes because it's the last thing they're willing to try. Either way, I meet you exactly where you are.
Common Challenges We Address
Every relationship faces its own unique struggles.
In couples therapy, we work through issues such as:
🌿
Repetitive arguments and unresolved conflict
🌿
Communication breakdowns or emotional disconnection
🌿
Infidelity, betrayal, or loss of trust
🌿
Life transitions (parenthood, relocation, retirement)
🌿
Balancing independence and togetherness
🌿
Intimacy and affection concerns
Our goal is not to assign blame, but to help you understand each other’s perspectives and rebuild emotional safety.

My Approach
Every couple that sits across from me has their own language, their own history, their own particular way of hurting each other and protecting each other. My job isn't to referee. It's to slow things down enough that you can both hear what's actually being said beneath the argument.
​
I work from an emotionally focused framework, which means we pay attention to what's happening underneath the surface: the fear, the longing, the old wounds that get activated when you feel unheard or dismissed. Most conflict in relationships isn't really about what it appears to be about. When we get to what it's actually about, things start to shift.
​
I'm direct. I won't let you stay comfortable in patterns that aren't working. But everything happens within a space that feels safe enough to be honest, sometimes for the first time in a long time.
