Marriage Counseling

Marriage can be one of the most meaningful parts of our lives—but when disconnection sets in, it tends to ripple through everything. It affects how we speak, how we listen, how we show up. In my work with couples, I help partners find their way back to one another—not just by resolving conflict, but by understanding what the conflict is really about. Together, we uncover the patterns that keep you stuck, while building new pathways toward trust, closeness, and shared understanding.

My approach draws from the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), both of which emphasize the emotional safety and attunement needed to sustain a healthy bond. At the heart of this work is communication—not just about daily logistics, but about values, expectations, and the longings that often go unspoken. A strong marriage requires the courage to name what matters most and the skills to talk about it in a way that invites—not shuts down—connection. My role is to help you develop a style of communication that feels honest, secure, and empowering—one you can rely on well beyond our sessions.

I also support couples navigating the transitions that come with parenting. Whether you’re preparing to welcome a new child or adjusting to the evolving roles and dynamics that emerge as children grow older, these shifts can place stress on even the most grounded relationships. As a family therapist, I help couples stay connected through these seasons—so that while the family grows and changes, the marriage remains strong, intimate, and alive. My goal is not just to help you repair what’s frayed, but to help you reimagine what’s possible.

Couples counseling includes:

• Identifying recurring patterns in relationship

• Managing patterns of escalation and anger
