couples Therapy
Relationships matter.
Relationships will sometimes hurt us. And yet they are also the very thing that will heal us.
We are wired for connection. Without significant emotional bonds and connections with others we wouldn’t survive.
We’re not meant to be alone. We thrive in community. And community involves relationships.
Where Are You on the Couples Therapy Spectrum?
Whether you are dating, engaged, or married – couples therapy can help.
How Do You Bring Up Difficult Conversations With a New Partner?
When you’re dating, you feel a lot of emotions. You both have expectations as to what your relationship is and might look like.
Are we just having fun?
Are we significant others?
Are we planning on getting married?
It can be daunting to discuss all the important questions that come with dating and perhaps merging two lives in relationship.
If you find it difficult to bring up those awkward, sensitive topics that one or both of you might be avoiding, couples therapy gives you a safe place where you can have the important conversations about your relationship.
Starting Your Marriage Strong with Premarital Counseling
Premarital counseling helps couples prepare for marriage. It can help couples build a strong, healthy relationship — giving a better chance for a stable and satisfying marriage.
In premarital counseling, I help couples identify the strengths they bring to the marital relationship and help to identify weaknesses that could become problems during marriage.
When you are committed to having the most successful marriage possible, premarital counseling is a great option.

Restore Your Connection Through Marriage Counseling
Marriage can be hard.
Miscommunication, arguments, silence and distance can become the norm. Once a negative interaction cycle takes over in your marriage, the negativity has the power to make you and your partner feel like enemies, eroding all of the good out of the relationship.
But it doesn’t have to be that way.
Marital counseling helps couples restore their connection.
Parenting, life transitions, addictions, affairs, and other issues stress the marital bond causing couples to feel disconnected, stuck or living parallel lives. I offer a safe place for couples to resolve conflicts, establish better communication and restore connection.
Form a Tighter Bond with EFT Therapy
When it comes to your relationship, whether you are dating, engaged, or married, I can help you create an environment where you and your partner can discover the negative relational cycle in your relationship and help replace it with a positive one.
You can form a tighter bond with each other. You’ll be able to have tough conversations more successfully.
I practice Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) with couples. EFT is a form of therapy that focuses on attachment and bonding in relationship.
EFT is evidence-based, and research indicates that 70 to 75 percent of couples effectively move from distress to recovery using EFT. Approximately 90 percent of couples show significant improvement in their relationships.
Let’s change your relationship for the better.
