Couples Therapy
Even the strongest relationships face challenges. Couples therapy is about understanding the dynamics between you and your partner and working collaboratively to create a stronger and more resilient bond. The idea is to work together to build a relationship that supports you as individuals and as a couple. The issues we can explore together include communication, deepening connection, parenting, sex, life or relationship transitions, and infidelity. I work with people in all stages and types of relationships, including polyamory/ethical non-monogamy, kink, and LGBTQIA+, and work not only with couples but also polycules and familial relationships.
My approach to relationships therapy is rooted in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT) and informed by principles from the Gottman Method. EFCT is a gold standard treatment in couples therapy, with a strong research base and demonstrated effectiveness in reducing relationship distress. Emotionally Focused Therapy works from the principles of attachment theory, understanding that we are hardwired for connection and emotional responsiveness to those we are closest to.
