Couples Therapy

“We are wounded in relationship, and we are healed in relationship.”
— Harville Hendrix, PhD

Couples therapy can be a supportive space for partners who feel disconnected, stuck in painful cycles, or impacted by trust injuries such as infidelity or emotional betrayal. Many couples come to therapy wanting to feel closer again, communicate more openly, and reconnect in ways that feel meaningful and secure. I work with partners who care deeply about their relationship and are looking for support in strengthening it.

My approach is trauma-informed, collaborative, and grounded in compassion. Together, we explore how past experiences — including individual or relational trauma — can shape emotional reactions, communication patterns, and a sense of safety with one another. As couples gain awareness of these patterns, they often find new ways to respond with greater understanding, empathy, and care.

I am trained in Levels 1 and 2 of the Gottman Method, a research-based approach to couples therapy that focuses on what helps relationships grow and thrive. Depending on your needs, our work may include:

• Improving communication and navigating conflict with more clarity and respect

• Rebuilding trust after betrayal or relationship ruptures

• Deepening emotional intimacy and connection

• Understanding trauma responses and negative interaction cycles

• Learning practical tools to support long-term relationship health

Couples therapy is not about deciding who is “right” or “wrong.” It’s about creating a space where both partners feel heard, supported, and more securely connected — and where the relationship itself can begin to heal and grow.
