Couples Therapy

Relationships are vital to our well-being, yet they can also be a source of stress when communication breaks down or connection fades. Couples therapy provides a space to strengthen your partnership through understanding, trust, and emotional attunement.

​

My approach is rooted in Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) and Attachment Theory, and is informed by Internal Family Systems (IFS) and EMDR principles as well. Whether you're navigating a difficult season or striving to reconnect, I’m here to help you navigate toward growth and fulfillment as a team.

What to expect
In our work together, I'll support you and your partner to:

Couple Holding Hearts

✔ Recognize and shift unhelpful patterns

✔ Improve communication and empathy

✔ Deepen emotional intimacy and connection

✔ Resolve conflict in healthy, constructive ways

Let’s work together to rediscover what brought you together and build a stronger foundation for the future.
