As a Couples therapist,

my work is informed by pragmatic, attachment and relationally oriented approaches such as Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy and Gottman Method.

There are so many ways to be a couple. I approach each without judgement or expectation. I see the primary aspects of health in couplehood as attachment, trust, communication and sexuality. I approach this work from a position of facilitating conversation between partners so that they can discover the avenues and obstacles to connection in their relationship. This work typically involves understanding how early relationships inform our patterns of relating to others. In the safety of the therapy space we explore how those patterns are enacted, and evaluate how the relationship can support each person’s needs.

I can support you and your partner

• Improve communication

• Rebuild trust

• Navigate infidelity or betrayal

• Strengthen emotional and physical intimacy

• Prepare for marriage or deepen commitment

• Parent more collaboratively

• Repair and recover after experiencing a trauma

• Decide whether to stay together

• Consider non-traditional relationships such as ethical non-monogamy and polyamory

What to Expect

I help couples slow down reactive cycles and understand the emotional dynamics beneath conflict. Rather than assigning blame, we look at patterns — and how to change them.

Couples therapy is not about winning arguments. It is about learning how to hear and be heard.

We begin by clarifying your shared goals. Sessions focus on:

• Identifying recurring patterns

• Learning new communication strategies

• Developing emotional attunement

• Repairing ruptures in real time

I work with married and unmarried couples, LGBTQ+ partners, and those in long-term or newly formed relationships.
