In my work with couples, I recognize that communication can often be a significant barrier to connection. Many couples I work with experience their own mental health needs, which can complicate interactions and lead to misunderstandings.

Together, we explore the underlying issues that may be hindering communication/connection and work on strategies to enhance understanding and empathy. I help couples develop practical skills for healthier communication.
