Relationship Therapist. Are you asking yourself ‘Is this struggle because I’m being difficult or because they are?’ and ‘Should I be able to handle this better than I am?’ Are your relationship interactions causing you to shut down or flare up? You may be holding on to unspoken doubts and resentments that feel unsolvable, but you haven’t given up on your relationship. Feeling frustrated and hopeless about how to create the connections you want is understandable. We enter relationships with idealistic expectations and promises that inevitably get broken, and we don’t have a roadmap to repair them. I help partners find that roadmap.
I work with partners navigating many relationship styles such as polyamory, CNM and monogamy. In the first session, we get as much information as possible from everyone in the room. I want to know what makes it hard to be on the same team about whatever issue is present. From there, we develop clarity about what each can do to change the dynamic.
It may feel risky to consider the conversations that need to happen to break this stalemate. I believe your relationship is worth it. When you are all set, I invite you to book a free 20-minute consultation to address your concerns and explore how we might work together.

I work with people who are interested in developing the skills to be the best partner they can be. I am inspired to create a world where we relate to one another with a deeper understanding, curiosity and compassion. Where we can be inspired by differences rather than threatened by them. As we work together, you will have space for deeper connection and freedom to explore.
