Couples Therapy

Towards Embodied Trust.

Healthy Relationships are hard work and achievable. Therapy serves as a creative container to learn about your partner, make agreements that feel current, resolve chronic conflict, and find balance between autonomy and connection.

I work with couples within the frame of monogamy as well as consensual non-monogamy. I believe the quality of our friendships are just as important as the connection with a partner(s). Friendships go through cycles and the loss of connection with a dear friend an be just as painful. Friendships are most welcome.

I use various therapeutic modalities, including Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), the Gottman Method, Imago Therapy, and the work of Ester Perel and Terry Real.

  • Family Planning

    Difference and Indifference

    Support for couples who want to explore their desire and/or resistance to having a child or more children. Couples who are deciding to be childfree. And for couples and pairs repairing, reconnecting, and coming up for air after an abortion and/or miscarriage.

  • Boundary Crossing

    Rupture and Repair

    A crisis may emerge from infidelity, substance abuse, or mismanagement of finances. Whether the relationship ends or moves into its next chapter; forgiveness, healthy boundaries, and repair is possible. Both outcomes require transformation.

  • Sex + Intimacy

    Connection and Safety

    Your sex life doesn’t need to be perfect. But your yearning for connection, pleasure, intimacy, and play must be honored. Together we uplift whats already working and explore the obstacles that are standing in the way of communicating your desires and experiencing your pleasure.

My Approach

In our sessions I will be direct, honest, and welcoming. I lean on my clinical skill, conflict resolution techniques as well as my humility. I help couples resolve chronic conflict, disconnection, and betrayal. Let's get to the root of what you're fighting about so you can start enjoying and resting in your relationship again.

“A close relationship is a powerful light force, and like any strong light it casts a large shadow. When you stand in the light of a close relationship, you must learn to deal with the shadow.”
