Couples Therapy
Relationships are inherently challenging. Small conflicts can trigger conflict that leaves partners disengaged, angry, and hurt. Couples therapy transforms painful moments into opportunities for deep engagement. Partners learn to identify unproductive communication that distorts their desire to be understood and loved. I help partners express and receive the underlying messages they share in order to better know themselves and their partner.
My work with couples is rooted in an eclectic approach based upon research in attachment studies, developmental psychology and an understanding of unconscious emotional dynamics. I actively work to help each partner explore and express their deepest needs and understand how their emotional responses to each other interfere with a more satisfying connection.
