Couples Therapy
A deeper, more meaningful connection.
Couples therapy provides a valuable opportunity for partners who feel disconnected or struggle to feel heard and understood by each other.
The work
Your partner isn’t just anyone to you.
We enter into relationships hoping they will be a source of deep comfort, care, and connection. In fact, we are born with a biological imperative to find solace and safety in our relationships with one another.
Sometimes though, even with the best intentions and efforts, we can find our closest relationships contributing to our feelings of distress and aloneness. The arguments we have with our partners impact how we see one another and begin to shape thoughts we have about ourselves as well.
Couples counseling has the potential to help reshape your primary relationship as a secure base in which you feel your partner is available, responsive, and engaged.

Why now
According to Dr. John Gottman, couples often wait an average of six years before making the decision to seek out couples therapy. Yet we know now that steady doses of relationship distress impact our physical and mental health. There’s no need to wait six years to decide that you and your partner deserve a more loving and secure connection.
The approach
My work with couples is most informed by my advanced training in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT) — exploring what it means to move from insecure to secure attachment in your most important relationship.
