Have you hit a wall?

Maybe you've been having the same argument for years. Or the distance between you two has grown so gradually you're not sure when it started. Perhaps something happened that shattered the trust you built, and you don't know if it can be repaired. Or maybe things aren't terrible, but they're not what you hoped they would be — and you're not sure how to get there from here. Whatever brought you here, the fact that you're looking for help is meaningful. Most couples wait far too long before finally reaching out.

Repair what has been ruptured

I use my Advanced-level training in Somatic Experiencing® and Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples (EFT) to help couples understand and shift the patterns that keep them stuck.

EFT is one of the most research-supported approaches to couples therapy in the world. It works by helping partners identify the negative cycles they get caught in — the pursue-withdraw dynamic, the shutdown, the escalation — and understand what's driving them underneath. Almost always, beneath conflict and distance, there are unmet attachment needs: a longing to feel close, safe, valued, and chosen by your partner.

The somatic piece adds another powerful layer. When couples are in conflict, their nervous systems are often in survival mode — flooded, shut down, or braced for impact. By helping partners track what's happening in their bodies during difficult moments, we can slow the cycle down before it takes over, and open up space for something different.

I work with couples navigating:

• Recurring conflict and communication breakdown

• Emotional distance and disconnection

• Loss of intimacy — emotional or physical

• Trust repair after infidelity or betrayal

• Life transitions that have strained the relationship — new children, career changes, loss, relocation

• Feeling more like roommates than partners

• Considering separation and wanting to make a thoughtful, informed decision

A note on where you are

You don't have to be in crisis to benefit from couples therapy. Some couples come to me on the verge of separation, looking for clarity about whether the relationship can be repaired. But many others come much earlier, wanting to build a stronger foundation before small issues become big ones. I work with couples at every stage and without judgment about where you are.
