You’re a modern couple, building a career and a relationship. You notice the effort taking its toll. You’re ready to learn how to protect your spark, so that your love continues to thrive. Perhaps, it’s been too long since you experienced passion and fun with your partner, or you're going through a relationship crisis. You remember when things were different, and you long to be close again. Relationship troubles can de-stabilize everything in our lives; yet, there is hope! Through couple therapy, you will be able to increase your understanding of one another, and solve problems, together.
I am a couple therapist, specializing in all things relationship. I will help you sort through individual desires, and couple goals, so that you are able to move forward again, confidently. I provide online therapy to couples living throughout New York, via a secure video platform, as well as in-person in Nyack, NY.
Relationships can be challenging, but they are the number one source of our wellbeing, which makes them worth the work. Thankfully, you do not have to go through problems alone. Each couple who works with me receives a tailored therapy plan that helps them see progress quickly, while working together as a team. To get started, reach out via phone or email.

I work with clients who are seeking to learn the skills necessary to strengthen their romantic relationships, and move to the other side of conflict with increased connection. My clients complete an intake questionnaire, as well as relationship assessments, so that therapy will be tailored to their specific needs. Most couples see improvement in 3-5 sessions.
