Couples Therapy
Love is not always enough. But love, with the right tools and willingness to grow, can become a more secure and sustainable bond.
Every relationship experiences conflict, disconnection, or distance at times. You may feel like you are having the same argument again and again. Or like something has shifted and you no longer feel heard, seen, or understood. Maybe you are navigating a life transition, rebuilding trust, or trying to repair after a rupture.
Whether you have been together for months or decades, therapy can provide a space to slow down, communicate more effectively, and begin to move toward one another again.
My Approach
Couples therapy in my practice is grounded in the Gottman Method, an approach supported by decades of research on what makes relationships thrive. The work focuses on strengthening friendship, improving communication, increasing emotional responsiveness, and creating shared meaning. We explore what is getting in the way of connection and begin to build new patterns that support trust, intimacy, and mutual care.
In sessions, I act as a neutral and compassionate guide. I am here to help each partner feel heard, to identify the deeper needs underneath conflict, and to offer tools you can use outside of the therapy room. I do not take sides. Instead, I help you move from blame to understanding and from reactivity to repair.
Couples Come to Therapy to Work Through:
Conflict that escalates or never seems resolved
Feeling distant or emotionally disconnected
Communication breakdowns
Rebuilding trust after a rupture
Navigating life transitions, parenting, or health challenges
Differences in neurotype, attachment style, or communication needs
Exploring nonmonogamy or changes in relational structure
Sexual and emotional intimacy
Wanting to stay together but unsure how
You do not need to be in crisis to benefit from couples therapy. Some of the most meaningful work happens when both partners are open to reflection, growth, and strengthening what is already good.
Affirming, Inclusive, and Tailored to You
I provide affirming care for couples of all genders, sexualities, and relational structures. This includes LGBTQIA+ couples, neurodiverse partnerships, and those exploring ethical nonmonogamy or kink. Every relationship is unique, and therapy is tailored to your values, your strengths, and your goals as a couple.
Whether you are learning how to communicate more clearly, reconnecting after a hard season, or just wanting to feel more like a team again, couples therapy offers space to be intentional about how you relate, repair, and grow.
