Relationship Therapy
How we feel about life is defined by how we feel about our relationships.
When our relationships are in a bad place, it’s extremely distressing and isolating. We only see the social media perfect version of other people’s relationships and tell ourselves that everyone else has it figured out. That’s just not the case.
No one gets taught in school about how to do relationships, so we have to figure it out on our own. That’s where I come in. When you work with me, you have a dedicated guide and teammate to support you, and the first step is simply helping you feel less alone.
Relationship therapy can be scary to start, but it is a life-changing investment in your well-being.
As a licensed marriage and family therapist, I offer relationship therapy for couples and polycules, marriage counseling, and pre-marital counseling. These services can address communication problems, relationship dissatisfaction, and infidelity.
I have training in multiple evidence-based therapy approaches including the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT).
When people do relationship therapy with me, I’ve had the honor of witnessing their incredible personal and relational growth. I feel so lucky to be a couples therapist.

Some common ways I help the people I work with in couple therapy:
-
Feel like you’re having the same fight over and over again? That’s pretty normal. Most fights are based around core differences that can’t be tidily resolved. However, you CAN learn to work through these core differences in a way that leaves you feeling closer rather than gridlocked and overwhelmed.
-
Couple therapy isn’t just about doing conflict better. It’s also about nurturing your bond through joy, fun, closeness, and adventure. Everyday stresses and/or big life events can often erode the friendship in your relationship.
-
Relationships have to be able to grow even as the people inside of them change and enter new stages of life. Getting back in touch with values and dreams is a key compass that supports the relationship as you navigate the journey.
