It's hard to say when things 'shifted', but you realize that you barely recognize the person you've been living with. It's both heart wrenching and horrifying to imagine that you and your partner have grown so far apart. You're questioning your relationship - maybe ALL of your relationships. You're a stranger to your partner, and they, to you. What brought us together to begin with? And why can't we work through even the simplest things? At some point maybe you convinced yourself that 'this will pass'. Maybe it started when you got that new job, when your kids were born, when... But now, the distance between you can't be ignored.

Do you find yourself and your partner constantly getting stuck in the same cycles of miscommunication, conflict, and emotional distance?

I specialize in helping partners improve their communication skills, resolve conflicts in a constructive manner, and rekindle the emotional intimacy that may have faded over time. My approach integrates the Gottman method couples therapy techniques to develop a deep understanding of relationship dynamics.

Sometimes in life we feel disconnected from ourselves and the people we love most. We feel a strong desire for change whether we know exactly what that change is yet or not. At times that change is forced upon us due to a loss of some kind in which we find ourselves grieving and in pain. Or the change we want feels unacceptable and risky. As a therapist, I believe in the transformative power of change. I believe we all possess internal wisdom and the ability to change in ways that are needed and desired. I am also aware that change can be scary and feel impossible at times.

We all feel stuck from time to time. Life transitions or past wounds can make living in the moment difficult. I seek to help clients heal the hurt they feel so they can experience the joys that life has to offer!
