Psychodynamic couples therapy is an exploratory kind of therapy. Adults carry within themselves the lessons and feelings from a lifetime of experiences. Some of these are obvious, and some are located outside of one’s awareness. All these experiences and feelings can potentially affect the situation which brings a couple to therapy. Concerns about intimacy and sexual connection can have psychodynamic underpinnings and may also be explored in this therapy. Some couples note that they are having the same quarrel over and over, and they feel stuck and unable to change this pattern. Some are unsure if they wish to stay together.

Change can be tough—but you don’t have to face it alone. As a PMHNP, I bring a unique perspective to patient care, shaped by my upbringing in a military family. Growing up in a dynamic and sometimes challenging environment taught me the importance of resilience, adaptability, and the ability to build strong support systems. These experiences allow me to connect with patients from various walks of life, particularly those who have faced adversity or transition. I believe that understanding the complexities of military life and its impact on mental health helps me provide compassionate, tailored care to those who may need it most.
