Couples

Couples

 

Sometimes only so much work can be done on the individual level.  If the pain occurred in the relationship, then the healing must take place in the relationship.  

Maybe you are having the same arguments over and over, or you are looking for more intimacy and fulfillment in your relationship? Are you aligned sexually?

My goal when working with couples is to help take down walls and barriers that make it hard to see one another.  To break unhealthy patterns of relating and understand the origins of these patterns.  It’s incredible what awareness can do to opening the door for change to occur. I hope to set the foundation for healthier communicating, increased empathy and intimacy.

I am trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy, Gottman level 1 & 2, I’m sex therapy informed and a clinical member of AASECT.

Some issues I focus on in my practice are:

  • Communication (including neurodivergent couples)

  • Trust

  • Relationship wounds (infidelity, distance/avoidance)

  • Differences in Desire

  • Misalignments between couples (goals, roles, financial, sexual)

  • Healthy Boundaries

  • Attachment issues (anxious/avoidant)

  • Substance Abuse and Addictions

  • Stress

  • Parenting

  • Divorce
