Therapy for Couples

Maybe this sounds familiar … you started out in your relationship feeling excited and hopeful, but somewhere along the way you started to feel disillusioned or began to worry that the relationship wasn’t what you thought it was, or that your person no longer seemed like who you thought they were. Maybe you just weren’t sure of what you wanted anymore, or communication became increasingly more difficult and patterns formed that you started to feel stuck in. It’s pretty common to get to a point in our most important relationships where things become really confusing and it’s hard to figure what to do or how to handle it.

This is where I might be able to help. I work with couples to find ways to build a greater sense of security in their relationship, learn the skills to navigate through conflict and tension instead of repeatedly getting stuck there, and work toward a healthier state of balance and ease. I can help clients get clear on their own feelings, beliefs, desires and preferences, and developing ways to share those parts of themselves with their partners while learning to sit with, and work through, the differences that come up along the way.

Recognizing the importance of attachment dynamics, cultural nuances, and systemic influences, I take into consideration the unique context of each partner and how their individual experiences influence how they show up in the relationship.

I am committed to creating a safe and empathetic environment where clients can work on self-discovery and find ways to feel a greater sense of safety in themselves, and to become more curious and open with their partners. I believe that by working through the difficulties we face with those closest to us, we have the ability to heal not only get more comfortable in the present, but to heal from the past, and I am dedicated to helping couples navigate this challenging process. I strive to bring compassion, empathy, and maybe even some humor into the therapy room and hope you’ll reach out to set up a free consultation to see if I might be a good fit to support you on your journey.
