No matter how much you talk about it, hardly anything gets resolved. And because of it, your relationship now has more grudges, anger, resentment, and distrust than you can tolerate. The wounds are deep and layered upon wounds of relationships past. At times it even feels like you're worlds apart, and the more you try to get the other to understand, the gap just widens. It's exhausting to be on edge with each other, bracing for the next escalation of blame and shame. You're over trying to keep the peace. Rather, you're longing to feel the safety and connection.
Perhaps you've tried couple's counseling before, but progress was minimal. Therapists are often reluctant to speak the truth about the dysfunctional dynamic, worried they'll upset their clients. But you don't have the time or patience to beat around the bush — you're coming in because you need real, lasting transformation. I'm here for that.
Shopping around for a therapist can take a significant investment in time and energy. Let's get on the phone and see how it feels to discuss your situation and answer your questions. I hope to hear from you.

I work with people who want more closeness, trust, and solidarity in their relationship. During our initial sessions, we will uncover the dysfunctional dynamic keeping you stuck and prepare a plan for radically changing the dance. This often includes relational trauma healing in addition to relational skill building, leading to long-lasting change.

I know the problem is the dynamic, not the person. With curiosity and compassion, I carefully confront the anti-relational behaviors that are getting in the way of the fulfilling connection you long for. Everyone in the session will be challenged and supported to grow in ways that will impact not just this relationship, but all your relationships for the better.
