I am a clinical psychologist specializing in couples and family therapy. I work at the largest VA couples therapy clinic in the country. I focus on helping couples feel safe to be vulnerable and to understand complex relational patterns with compassion. Many couples seek help with "communication," often pointing to deeper emotional disconnect: feeling unheard, and unsafe being vulnerable. These struggles are common not because we’re broken or don't care about our partners, but because the warmth and sense of safety we once had have slowly dimmed over time, often unknowingly. This makes it harder to share and truly hear our longing.
When we feel safer, we can share deeper needs and pain that we may not even fully understand ourselves. This opens the door to clearer communication, compassionate repair of past wounds, and deeper physical and emotional 'intimacy,' which truly means: 'into-me-see.' Couples often say, I 'knew' that about you, but this is the first time I truly 'heard' you.
Relationships can feel like old shoelaces knotted together in a box in the attic, feeling stuck, overwhelmed, and uncertain where to begin. I can help you untangle those knots slowly and gently to rekindle warmth and clarity, so those loosened strings can help you step into each other’s shoes again and continue to walk together side by side.
