Are you exhausted from the same arguments that never seem to end in your relationship? Do you feel distant from your partner or struggle to rebuild trust after a betrayal? Many couples come to couples therapy feeling stuck or anxious about the future, but real change is possible. As a therapist at The Center For Improving Relationships, I help partners slow down, uncover the emotions and patterns driving their conflicts, and create emotional safety so they can reconnect, communicate more openly, and move forward together. My focus is on relational healing and repairing the bond.
My work is grounded in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT), an evidence-based approach that helps partners recognize unhelpful patterns, strengthen emotional bonds, and restore trust. Rather than focusing on blame or who is “right,” therapy helps both partners feel heard, understood, and emotionally connected again.
I specialize in working with couples navigating infidelity, trust ruptures, communication challenges, and recurring conflict. I work with a diverse range of couples and relationship structures, welcoming partners of different backgrounds, identities, and life experiences. Together, we break negative cycles, rebuild trust, and strengthen emotional connection.
