You're a couple who's lost connection—sexually, emotionally, or both. Maybe you've stopped being intimate and don't know how to start again. Maybe one of you wants sex and the other doesn't.

My ideal client is a high-functioning woman who has spent years managing everything on her own — but internally feels exhausted, anxious, or like something unresolved is quietly running the show. She's self-aware and has likely tried to think her way through it. What she hasn't been able to do is change the patterns — the over-responsibility, the emotional shutdown, the difficulty asking for what she needs. She's ready to stop coping and start actually healing.

Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, capable individuals who have learned how to carry a lot while still showing up for their responsibilities. From the outside they may appear to be managing well, but internally they often feel exhausted, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves.
If you’ve been carrying a lot quietly, therapy can offer a space to pause, reflect, and reconnect with yourself.
