Couples therapy

Almost every couple experiences relationship challenges. There are numerous reasons why communication between partners can worsen. A new phase of the relationship, greater shared responsibilities such as raising children, or increased work stress, to name a few, can impact the health of your relationship when these changes contribute to ongoing misunderstanding or conflict.

When you feel disconnected from your partner life can feel awful. It is exhausting to be fighting, to feel misunderstood, and to feel lonely in your relationship or marriage. Many couples may try to “wait until things settle down” or attempt to avoid conflict altogether by sweeping some important issues under the rug. Avoidance strategies can often lead to further conflict or greater distance in the relationship from one or both partners.

Fortunately, with the help of an experienced couples therapist you and your partner can get back to a fulfilling and satisfying relationship. Using Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT), I help guide struggling couples back to a place of love and connection.
