Couples Therapy
Reconnect, Communicate Better & Build a Lasting Partnership
Every relationship has challenges, but feeling disconnected, misunderstood, or stuck in repeating arguments can be deeply painful. Stronger, healthier relationships don’t just happen—they are built. If you're ready to improve communication, restore intimacy, and reconnect with your partner, therapy can help. Couples therapy offers a space to break unhealthy patterns, rebuild trust, and create a stronger emotional bond.
I specialize in Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), an evidence-based approach that helps couples identify negative cycles, transform communication, and foster greater emotional security. Whether you're facing ongoing conflict or simply want to deepen your connection, therapy can help.
I work with couples of all backgrounds, identities, and relationship styles. My practice is LGBTQ+ affirming and inclusive of gender, sexual, and relational diversity.
What can couples therapy help with?
Exploring non-monogamy/polyamory in a safe, supported space
Healing after an infidelity or betrayal
Managing conflict in a way that strengthens, rather than harms, your relationship
Learning to communicate in a way that makes you feel heard and understood
Coping with infertility, reproductive challenges and baby loss
Rebuilding trust, intimacy, and emotional closeness
Supporting each other through trauma, illness, or life’s hardest moments
Healing from relationship injuries
If the difficulty you and your partner are struggling with is not on this list, please get in touch - I may still be able to help you or refer you to a colleague.
What to expect of EFT relationship therapy
The first few sessions are joint sessions dedicated to exploring your relationship background and understanding current difficulties in the relationship.
The following step is an individual session with each partner, aimed at exploring each individual's family history and significant life events. This helps me make sense of each partner's attachment.
After individual sessions, we will resume joint couples sessions where we will start identifying the negative cycles that occur in the relationship. Together, we will work towards changing negative patterns of interaction and emotional responses, with the goal of re-establishing emotional intimacy and connection in the relationship.
Couples sessions are 51-minutes per session, and generally lasts between 12 to 20 sessions for couples with mild to medium relationship distress. However, the duration of treatment can be longer depending on the presenting issue.
