Couples Therapy
From Disconnection to Closeness
Even strong relationships can get stuck in painful cycles. Many couples I work with feel distant, misunderstood, or weighed down by stress and unspoken expectations. One partner may reach for closeness while the other pulls away, leaving both frustrated and alone. Therapy offers a safe space to step out of those patterns and rebuild connection.
Common Struggles I Help With
Couples often come to therapy when they notice the same patterns repeating despite their best efforts. Some challenges I help with include:
Cycles of distance, arguments, or silence that never get resolved
Struggles to share emotions openly without fear of conflict or rejection
The weight of stress, shame, or self-doubt that makes it hard to stay close
Longing for trust, intimacy, and the sense of being on the same team again
How We’ll Work Together
I use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and The Gottman Method to help couples slow down, recognize the patterns that push them apart, and create new ways of reaching for each other.
Together, you’ll:
Step out of cycles of conflict and distance and build new patterns of connection
Share emotions more openly with honesty and compassion
Soften the stress and self-doubt that fuel arguments and disconnection
Rebuild trust, intimacy, and a felt sense of being supported and understood
EFT focuses on creating secure emotional bonds, while Gottman strategies provide concrete tools for communication, conflict resolution, and friendship. Blending these approaches helps couples not only heal old wounds but also strengthen the foundation of their relationship for the long term.
Moving Forward Together
You don’t have to stay stuck in the same cycles. Couples therapy can help you move past disconnection and create the closeness you’ve been missing whether you’re repairing after years of distance or simply want to grow stronger together.
