Couples therapy is a container to help partners strengthen their connection, improve communication, and navigate relational challenges with greater understanding and skill.
Most couples are unclear about what the purpose of their partnership is, where they are headed together, and what conditions they are committed. to sustaining for each other — thus the goal of therapy is to gain clarity and cultivate an alliance that is secure, resilient, and aligned with both partners’ values, needs and goals.
When a couples' intention for intimacy and connection is met with curiosity and space, the relational tensions and dysfunctional patterns can be used to cultivate a partnership that grows and thrives with the ebbs and flows of life.
Each partner comes with their unique hurts and strengths, rigidities and flexibilities; all of which can be seen and utilized for the deepest levels of healing.
This work is not always easy, but I have seen it become something couples look forward to doing together. It is my hope that you will learn about yourselves, each other, and what nurtures a healthy relationship so you can find more meaning, connection, and joy during all seasons of your relationship.

Repair Work is a focused therapeutic container of support that I have begun to offer family members, friends, community members, or co-workers who have reached an impasse in their relational field and share a desire to work through it.
Relationships are cosmic events — we do not know their ultimate timing or purpose, why certain connections last a lifetime and others do not. Thus, we meet our relationships with respect and openness to receive the lessons, engage with the unique curriculum available, and trust the greater unfolding.
Over the course of 1-5 sessions, this process will provide you with a structured environment to hear and be heard, to cultivate understanding of self and other, clarify agreements, and ultimately to move forward with greater resolution — regardless of the outcome of the relationship.
Common areas of focus:
Understanding & Acknowledgement
Identifying core needs & values
Communication & Listening
Emotional regulation & Nervous system awareness
Clarifying agreements & boundaries
Perspective taking & Empathy
Repair & Moving forward
