Couples Therapy
A relationship is one of the most powerful parts of our life and, simultaneously, can be one of our biggest challenges. Our relationship health needs to be taken care of just like our physical health. It is normal for your relationship to require preventative care, maintenance and care for injuries that occur over time. Couples therapy can be a resource for a couple who is in distress or a couple who is just starting to notice some bumps in the road.
How I work with Couples
In my work with couples, I balance my efforts between helping you understand the underlying cause of your distress and equipping you with the communication tools that your relationship is missing. My aim is to help you attain and maintain the intimacy you desire with your partner. I integrate techniques from the work of Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy as well as The Gottman Method.
