Couples Therapy

Helping Couples Grow Through Life’s Transitions

My work with couples is grounded in deep listening, curiosity, and care. Drawing from psychodynamic, relational, systems, and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) approaches, I help partners make sense of their patterns and reconnect in meaningful ways. I bring a warm, non-judgmental presence to the therapy room. Whether you're navigating a major transition or feeling stuck, we’ll work together to create space for clarity, growth, and renewed connection.

Every couple has a dance — the way they move together emotionally. Therapy helps partners see that dance, and learn new steps

Common Relationship Challenges I Address with Couples:

  • Family-building decisions

  • Coping with fertility challenges and perinatal loss as a couple

  • Managing the stress of caregiving in the "sandwich generation" (caring for both children and aging parents)

  • Balancing partnership and parenthood

  • Separation, co-parenting, and repair

  • Strengthening communication and conflict resolution during periods of change

  • Exploring differing desires or timelines around commitment and marriage

  • Rebuilding trust and intimacy after periods of disconnection or strain

  • Supporting intercultural or interfaith couples navigating values and identity

  • Working with couples where one or both partners are navigating significant professional or identity shifts
