Couples Therapy

“Understanding is love’s other name.”

- Thích Nhất Hạnh

When you feel disconnected from your partner or the future of your relationship feels uncertain, your sense of “home” in the world can suddenly feel unstable. You may be navigating the transition to parenthood, a new job, or a geographical relocation together, or trying to move forward after infidelity. It can feel stressful, exhausting and even hopeless at times to navigate the growing emotional and/or physical disconnection you’re experiencing. Feeling alone while together can be one of the most painful kinds of loneliness. 

We all want to be seen, heard, appreciated, and understood by our partners. Even the strongest relationships require work and maintenance. Going to couples therapy is an act of courage, and a testament to the fact that even though you’re struggling, you believe in and want to strengthen what you have built together. It is possible to restore safety and trust, and find a renewed sense of connection. 

You and your partner can find home in one another again.

Together, we can help you identify the patterns in your relationship that get you stuck, find new ways to express your emotional needs, and learn how to build a deeper, lasting bond. 

I have advanced training in Emotion Focused Therapy, which is widely considered to be a gold standard treatment approach for couples. I welcome LGBTQ and interracial/intercultural couples.
