I specialize in working with couples looking to heal, deepen and rejuvenate their relationship. Couples come to therapy to discuss a range of issues where they feel stuck or ineffective. Issues include communication, intimacy, conflict or withdrawal, grief and loss, trauma, life transitions, infidelity, parenting, in-laws and family dynamics, money, career decisions, and work-life balance.
I use a variety of approaches to help couples find relationship satisfaction, hope, and lasting change. Couple therapy involves being open to a process where each partner is curious about how their individual issues affect their partner and get in the way of a more satisfying relationship. Sometimes one partner is not open to therapy, in that case, I offer relationship-focused therapy to one individual.
During this unprecedented time, we are inside our homes feeling a wide array of emotions. While the threat of illness is looming and the day we can all return to normal is unknown, each family member has competing needs and limited resources. Each one feels the loss of the large world and connections that were sustaining. More than ever, there is pressure on family ties and it can feel overwhelming.
