Transformative Couple's Therapy

 

Build a relationship that feels safe, connected, and alive.

Whether you’re feeling distant, overwhelmed by conflict, navigating life transitions, or simply wanting to reconnect, couples therapy offers a space to restore and reimagine your partnership.

I work with couples—and other relational constellations (including polycules and non-traditional partnerships)—to strengthen satisfaction, connection, support, and passion. Together, we’ll explore not only how to work through challenges, but how to create the kind of bond that makes both (or all) of you feel more fully yourselves.

Affirming, Inclusive, and Judgment-Free

My practice is sex-positive and fully welcoming to queer, trans, non-binary, kink, and non-monogamous relationships. You don’t need to fit a conventional mold to benefit from couples therapy—and your relationship doesn’t need to be on the brink of collapse to seek support.

This is a space to be real about what’s working and what’s not, and to find a path forward that actually fits you.

For Couples at All Stages of the Journey

Some couples come to therapy in crisis; others come to invest in their bond before things go off track. I especially love working with:

  • Couples navigating parenthood and partnership

  • Partnerships wanting to rekindle passion or repair sexual disconnect

  • People opening or redefining their relationship structures

  • Partnerships where one or both partners feel emotionally unseen or alone

This Is a Space to Grow Together

You and your partner(s) deserve more than just surviving the day-to-day. You deserve a relationship that nourishes, evolves, and reflects your values and needs.

Let’s create that together.

 

A Two-Part Approach to Transformative Couples Therapy

My work blends depth and structure, offering you both a clear path and space to be fully human. We focus on two key areas:

1. Styles of Relating

We’ll explore the underlying patterns keeping you disconnected. By working from the lens of Attachment Theory, you’ll learn how your emotional

responses are shaped by past experiences—and how to shift into more secure, connected, and resilient ways of relating.

This work supports both interdependence and individuality:

  • You’ll build emotional self-regulation

  • Deepen trust and vulnerability

  • Strengthen your sense of self within the relationship

  • Learn to be there for each other without losing yourself

2. Skills That Support Connection

Alongside deeper insight work, we’ll build the skills you need to thrive day to day. Drawing from the Gottman Method, we’ll work on:

  • Effective and compassionate communication

  • Conflict de-escalation and repair

  • Listening with empathy

  • Rebuilding trust and emotional intimacy

  • Follow-through on agreements and accountability

  • Tools to rekindle sexual connection and desire
