Couples Therapy for Connection, Clarity, and Next Steps

Being in a relationship is deeply meaningful, but it can also be incredibly hard. Many couples come to therapy because they feel disconnected, stuck in the same arguments, or unsure how to rebuild trust after a painful rupture. Others feel like the tension never ends and wonder if things can ever change.

Couples therapy gives you a place to slow down, understand the patterns that keep you stuck, and learn new ways of connecting. The focus is on helping both partners feel seen and supported while working toward the relationship you want to build together.

My Approach

I specialize in relational therapy and draw from Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Internal Family Systems (IFS informed). This combination helps couples uncover what is happening underneath the arguments and shift the way they reach for each other. My style is straightforward and compassionate. I name the reality of what is happening without shame, and I encourage effort, because effort is what creates change.

Couples often tell me that for the first time they can see their cycle clearly and understand what keeps them from feeling close. With this understanding, they begin to repair, rebuild trust, and create a stronger foundation for the future.

What You Can Expect to Work On

  • Communicating in ways that reduce tension and defensiveness

  • Rebuilding trust after betrayal or broken promises

  • Restoring intimacy and closeness

  • Breaking out of cycles that leave you feeling stuck

  • Learning how to repair when conflict happens

  • Parenting and co-parenting as a team

Other Paths for Couples

Not every couple comes to therapy with the same goal. While many are working to stay together and grow, others come in at different stages. I also provide:

Support for Couples on the Fence – For those who are uncertain about the future and want clarity before making decisions.

Separation Support – For couples who have decided to part but want to do so with more respect and less conflict.

Co-Parenting Therapy – For parents who are no longer together but want to create stability and consistency for their children.

The Goal

Couples therapy is not one-size-fits-all. Whether you are here to strengthen your relationship, gain clarity about the future, or learn to work together in new ways, therapy gives you a place to move forward with more support and less conflict. My goal is to help you feel more connected, more confident, and more capable of facing what comes next.
