Couples Therapy

I specialize in working with couples around specific topics that I have both training and lived experience with in some way.

This work is important to me, not because I see it as my role to “fix” relationships, but because I know the bravery it takes to really look at a relationship and name the desire for it to be different— whether a couple decides to stay together or not, is not my decision to make. But I feel deep purpose in helping couples explore their options and respectfully address any shifts or transitions to be made.

Healing requires honesty. So the first piece we explore together is the intention for our work together. Some of these potential areas of exploration are:

• Therapy For Couples Recovering from Infidelity and Betrayal

• Grief, Bereavement and & Childloss

• Blending Families

• Entrepreneurial Couples

• Modern Marriages and Equitable Division of Labor

• Financial clarity and collaboration

• Family-of-origin estrangement, conflict, or relational rupture

• Couples on the Brink

• Neurodivergence in coupleship

• Life Transitions

If there is something you’d like support with that isn’t named here, feel free to reach out for a complimentary consultation, and we can talk about your needs and if I can help you, or find the support you need and deserve.

After completing the assessment, you’ll receive a personalized , thoughtful, in-depth overview that helps couples and individuals understand their level of differentiation, or the ability to maintain a solid self while staying connected to others in a relationship.

This assessment, rooted in Dr. David Schnarch's Crucible® Therapy model, focuses on how partners manage emotional anxiety, self-regulation, and connection to promote personal growth within the relationship rather than solely focusing on communication skills. 

This overview is designed to spark meaningful conversations and help guide our work together.

Whether you're looking to deepen your bond, work through challenges, or simply learn more about yourself in the context of your relationship, this assessment provides a clear starting point for real, lasting growth.

In differentiation-based couples therapy, the focus isn't just on improving communication — it's on helping each partner grow into a more grounded, authentic version of themselves within the relationship.

I’ll invite you to move beyond quick fixes and into deeper transformation. My style is warm, but also direct. Instead of trying to avoid conflict or smooth things over, this work helps you both develop the internal strength to stay present, speak honestly about your experience, and remain connected, even in the face of discomfort.

You’ll learn how to:

Tolerate vulnerability without shutting down or overreacting

Hold onto yourself while staying emotionally engaged with your partner

Grow through conflict rather than avoiding it or repeating old patterns

Build intimacy that’s rooted in authenticity, not just harmony

This model is especially powerful for couples who feel stuck in cycles of reactivity, distance, or people-pleasing — and who are ready to do the deeper work of relational growth.

It's about becoming more fully yourself, while building a stronger, more resilient connection — not by losing yourself in the relationship, but by bringing more of yourself to it.

** I also work with couples navigating the impact of deceptive sexuality and betrayal trauma using a model specifically for this purpose.

Couples Therapy Immersions are ideal for partners who want focused, intentional time to work on their relationship — especially for those with a desire for rapid, lasting transformation.

Unlike traditional weekly sessions, Therapy Immersions offer extended time together in a single day or over a few days, allowing us to experience spaciousness, to dive deeply into the patterns, pain points, and desires that matter most. This format creates the space to slow down, reconnect, and do powerful work without the disruption of everyday life.

For busy professionals, it means you don’t have to wait weeks or months to start seeing shifts. And for couples at a crossroads, whether you're healing from a rupture, navigating a transition, or wanting to deepen your connection, retreats can offer a reset that’s both grounding and transformative.

It’s not a quick fix, but it is a meaningful and accelerated path to greater clarity, intimacy, and understanding.
