You've realized your relationship isn't getting better, it's getting worse. Just when you think things are more peaceful, a difficult topic comes up, and the conversation devolves into another argument. You can't talk about anything important, important to you at least. When you do try to talk again, one of you feels defensive with strong emotions, the other of you feels disrespected or picked on. How do you communicate if you can't get past the start of a conversation? Your partner feels too fragile, so you just shut down to protect yourself and your partner from difficult emotions.
I help couples who feel alone and separate in their relationship to navigate the ups and downs without getting stuck in patterns that leave them feeling hurt or bitter. Through the Gottman Method, we look at your patterns of communication and learn new tools that will help you talk about the important things without the shutdown
I am solution focused. My clients tell me I’m calming, caring and balanced in my approach. They tell me I can be humorous, too. I use Gottman Method Couples Therapy and all the research and tools that come with it. Working with couples is my passion and I care deeply about them getting the outcomes they desire from couples' therapy.
