When working with couples, I utilize the Gottman Method to help strengthen their relationships. This approach is based on extensive research and focuses on improving communication, building trust, and enhancing emotional connection.
There is nothing quite as wonderful as a secure, romantic, committed love relationship. Yet even in the most loving couples, the nature of our past attachments together with the stress of daily life, can erode intimacy and trust and expose insecurities, jealousy, defensiveness, anger, sexual difficulties, disappointment and pain. As your couples’ therapist, my goal is to create a safe space where you can each feel heard and learn to better understand your relationship dynamics so that together you can restore trust and create positive change.
My practice specializes in helping couples navigate the complexities of partnership, no matter where you are in your relationship journey. We will identify patterns that are holding you back and keeping you stuck, break unhealthy relationship patterns and heal old wounds. You will learn to improve your communication, reclaim your intimacy and connection, and gain clarity around your needs and desires to find stability and happiness once again.
I use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help couples strengthen their connections and resolve conflicts. EFT is a proven, effective approach that focuses on deepening emotional intimacy and improving communication. By creating a safe, supportive environment, I guide couples in identifying and addressing underlying issues, fostering trust, and building healthier, more fulfilling relationships. Whether you’re facing ongoing challenges or seeking to enhance your bond, my goal is to help you create a resilient and loving partnership.
Relationships come in all shapes and sizes, and like snowflakes, no two are unique. What's come between the you and your most important relationship(s)? Are you arguing more? Do you spend the day feeling irritated? Are you no longer able to trust your partner? Is your partner making unreasonable demands, or is your partner not able to meet your reasonable expectations? Are you listening to each other? Do you feel understood?
There is no "single" way to treat a relationship. Let's learn what's going on with yours and identify what's needed (communications? intimacy? sex? boundaries? expectations?).
I have extensive training in couples therapy and I love helping you express vulnerable emotions to your partner. I can help you with communication skills and tools to improve your relationship or marriage.
We offer couples therapy for those who are currently struggling with significant conflict in their relationship, or those who are wanting to deepen their connection with their partner.
I work with couples and individuals on relationship issues. As humans we are wired for connection so relationships are at the core of our sense of self and well being. In my practice we can explore who you are as a child, parent, friend, or partner and gain insight into these important relationships.
Relationships and marriage are hard work and being put to the test these days. Let me help you learn the tools you need to make yours loving and lasting.
