About

If you’re not ready to give up on your relationship but know something has to change, you’re in the right place.

We’ll start by meeting weekly for the first few sessions to build momentum towards your goals and to map your relationship — your story, your strengths, your struggles, your support systems, and what you’re both hoping for. I’ll also check in about things like trauma history and cultural or familial influences, because all of that shapes how you relate to one another. This is about understanding your unique dynamic so we can work with it — not against it.

Once we have a solid foundation, we’ll create change by looking at the stuck patterns — those fights and misunderstandings you keep having, the places where you keep missing each other. We’ll figure out what’s actually going on under the surface (hint: it’s not really about the dishes or schedules) and we’ll work to uncover the root of your struggles, cut through the noise, and get back to what really matters: understanding each other, feeling connected, and remembering why you got together in the first place. We’ll look at what’s underneath the silence, the pressure, and the disconnect — so you can feel truly seen again and rediscover the intimacy and spark you once had.

As you start to feel more stable and connected as a couple, we’ll adapt our pace and cadence of therapy to fit your life. Some people continue to meet weekly, others may move to less often. As soon as you’re feeling good about your progress and comfortable using the tools you’ve learned outside of session, we can transition to periodic check-ins to stay connected to what’s working and protect what you’ve built together.

Through this work, you’ll be able to overcome current challenges and feel equipped with the skills and insights to continue strengthening and nurturing your relationship long after therapy ends.
