Seeking Distressed Couples! -Reduced-Fee Couples Therapy
Are you and your partner feeling stuck in the same painful arguments, emotionally disconnected, or wondering how to find your way back to one another?
I am currently offering a limited number of deeply discounted couples therapy sessions as I continue advanced training in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT)—one of the most well-researched and effective approaches for helping couples repair their relationship. Research has found that EFT helps many couples reduce relationship distress, strengthen emotional bonds, and create more secure, lasting connections.
For Individuals: I use trauma-informed approaches like inner child work, reparenting, and self-compassion, I help you process the root of your pain, not just manage the symptoms. This kind of work builds deep emotional regulation, lasting confidence, and a strong sense of inner calm. You’ll come to trust yourself more, and know what to do when life gets hard
I offer a FREE 15 minute phone consultation prior to a first appointment to make sure we are a good fit. It's so important you find the right person for you!
I also offer a free first trial session: if you don't want to keep working with me, you pay nothing! If you do think we are a good fit, you'll pay for the session and we can keep going from there!
