I work from an Interpersonal Process approach and have training in Emotionally Focused Therapy and Gottman Method Couples Therapy (Level 1).
I recognize that there is no one-size-fits-all for therapy, and therefore, together we will find the modality that works best for the issues that you are bringing to therapy. I have experience working with folks that struggle with a variety of concerns including anxiety, depression, relationship issues and stress management.

Most of our clients struggle with relationship issues stemming from childhood trauma and ADHD.
Therapy that actually gets ADHD. If you have ADHD, it’s normal to feel unsure about what you need from therapy, especially when most therapists aren’t trained to support neurodivergent minds. At The Therapy Nest, many of our therapists have lived experience with neurodivergence and are certified ADHD service providers. We're also trauma-informed, which means we create a space that’s not only ADHD-affirming but also deeply safe and sensitive to your past experiences.

Couples Counselling

Does couples counseling work?

Research shows that couples counseling is effective; it can reduce relationship distress and improve emotional awareness, communication, empathy, intimacy, and overall relationship satisfaction. For example, emotionally focused therapy was found to be effective for about 75 percent of couples, and those benefits lasted at least two years.

When should a couple seek counseling?

Couples can benefit from counseling if they consistently struggle in their relationship. They may have lost the ability to communicate effectively, become entrenched in harmful patterns, begun to fight more than usual, broken the other’s trust, suffered from a mental or physical illness, or faced any number of other challenges. Many therapists offer free consultations, so if a couple isn’t sure whether therapy is necessary, asking directly can provide clarity.

How can I get my partner to go to couples therapy?

The decision to seek couples therapy is often driven by one partner, who then convinces the other to participate. When discussing the idea, the initiator should be direct and assertive. They can state the problems they see and explain how the relationship would benefit from therapy. In more serious cases, they can also explain how their relationship may suffer without making any changes or seeking professional help.

How does a couple prepare for couples counseling?

The anticipation of beginning couples counseling can be difficult—sometimes more difficult than the first session itself. Taking a few moments to reflect can allay those concerns: What are the current challenges? When and how did they begin? What do they want the relationship to look like in the future? Reflecting on these questions can help individuals or couples articulate their goals. Of course, the therapist will also ask questions and guide couples through the process.
