Does it feel like your relationship is stuck in Groundhog Day? You have the same arguments over and over, while nothing ever changes. You love your partner, but some days you wonder if you really like your partner. If only you could get your partner to understand why you’re upset. Then maybe things would be different. These cycles start out as frustrating, but over time, they erode connection, trust, and a sense of emotional safety. You really want things to be different, better. You’re committed to your relationship, but you just don’t know where to start.
I am passionate about helping clients experience greater connection in their relationships. Using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), I guide clients towards more effective communication and functioning in their relationships. Whether you are reeling from infidelity or have just lost the connection, I can help.
In our work together, you and your partner will learn how to effectively express your needs and wants in your relationships. You will feel more connected and secure both within your relationship and with yourself. Even if your partner isn't ready to start the healing journey together, we can support you in making changes in your relationship.
