Couples Therapy
Great couples do the work
Even if a relationship looks effortlessly blissful from the outside, that's rarely the case.
Invest in your relationship by taking a somatic and emotionally focused approach to couples therapy.
Going to couples therapy doesn't mean you've failed, or that your relationship is doomed.
Can your relationship weather life's storms?
It can be scary to admit you and your partner need support.
Life's stresses and transitions can be hard enough to handle on your own. Adding another person (and their unique attachment style) into the equation can make things more complex.
​
Going to couples therapy doesn't mean you've failed, or that your relationship is doomed.
​
If you've been feeling the drift, a distancing between you and your partner, or it seems that all you ever do is fight, couples therapy may help. ​
​
Whether you and your partner are seasoned therapy clients or brand new, I'll make the process unintimidating and accessible.
Couples therapy can be helpful when you're:
-
Feeling alone in your relationship
-
Stuck in a cycle of fighting that never seems to resolve itself
-
​In the middle of a life transition, like a move
-
Facing stress at work that's showing up at home
-
Working through parenting style differences
-
Anticipating changes as a child leaves home
-
Working through grief and loss
-
Seeking to move towards a separation or divorce in a conscious and collaborative way
My couples work is grounded in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), considered to be one of the most effective approaches to couples therapy with long-lasting results.
EFT engages both partners in exploring the negative cycle of interaction that causes conflict. Rather than placing blame, this approach unites the couple in understanding how each of their attachment patterns (previously learned relationship dynamics) contributes to this dance.
You and your partner co-created the current dynamic that exists in your relationship.
​
With support and practice, you can create a new way of relating.
​
EFT is not just a tool for creating better communication in relationships. It's about creating secure attachment, which means you and your partner will learn to have emotional safety and comfort in your relationship.
