About

Couples in early seasons of marriage often arrive to therapy holding a lot of love for each other, and for that reason, feel confused and overwhelmed by the intensifying conflict, lack of connection in intimacy, or difficulty adjusting to life’s changes as they get married, change jobs, have kids, move, etc. Couples I work with want to feel more connected and confident about their ability to connect through all of life’s seasons. I will work with you to: improve your communication skills; understand your conflict & build skills to address it; and understand the underlying stories & beliefs impacting how you interact with each other. View 5 Photos In couples therapy, we'll spend time slowing down conversations to understand the common conflict cycles you get stuck in. I’ll help you practice new strategies for de-escalating conflict, regulating, and communicating about your feelings and internal process. I’ll also pay a lot of attention to stories and beliefs that influence how you engage. I believe that healing occurs when we're courageous enough to witness all that is - grief, disconnection, fear, etc. - and can address it with honesty & compassion. I also believe that healing isn’t meant to be lonely. We’ll work together to create a safe space to get vulnerable with each other and engage in new ways. I look forward to meeting you!
