Loving someone can be scary. It can bring up feeling where we feel out of control, and often times to ourselves in relation to them. I am here to help. While I believe healthy communication and honesty are keys to helping a relationship grow and thrive, I also believe that both people deserve to feel safe and heard. I will help you to communicate authentically, respect each others boundaries, and move aside the things in the way of getting in touch with they underlying love you feel that brought you together. I also believe in giving couples tools to “fight better” and listen to their partners with an open heart. Often times these two things alone can help bring more harmony between you.

Beyond communication tools, the thing that excites me about working with couples is helping transform dynamics that are harder to see into a deeper, easier connection. In many cases, old wounding or early familiar attachment can show up in dynamics with our partners that are hard to recognize when entrenched in it. Understanding patterns and learning how to communicate and attune differently to our partners can make huge shifts in how we connect. I utilize tools with clients through my training in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Somatic Experiencing, Psychodynamics, and the Tamura Method. I enjoy working with couples that “are good, but want to be great.” Coming in with an openness to learn more about each other can make space for change and a deeper connection.
