COUPLES THERAPY

Reconnecting through presence, emotion, and relational repair

Every relationship moves through seasons — closeness and distance, harmony and tension, love and rupture. Maybe you and your partner are feeling more like roommates than lovers. Maybe small arguments turn into big blowouts. Maybe you’re both hurting but don’t know how to reach for each other.

Couples therapy is not about blame — it’s about rebuilding the bridge. In our work together, we slow the pace, soften defenses, and tune in to the emotions underneath your patterns. We explore how both partners are protecting something tender: a longing to feel seen, valued, safe, or loved.

I use an Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) lens, along with somatic and attachment-informed practices that help you move from conflict to connection. You’ll learn to identify your emotional patterns, express your needs with clarity, and respond to your partner with empathy and care.

This work is not always easy, but it is brave — and it is deeply worth it.

Couples come to therapy when:

  • Communication feels hard, reactive, or shut down

  • Conflict keeps circling without resolution

  • Intimacy has faded, or you're feeling emotionally distant

  • Trust has been broken, or you're navigating a rupture

  • You're committed to growing a stronger, more connected relationship

What working together looks like:

Couples sessions are 75 minutes and take place online. We start by understanding the unique patterns in your relationship, the needs beneath those patterns, and what you're both longing for. I work collaboratively to help you rebuild safety and co-create new ways of being with each other — ways that feel more honest, more spacious, and more loving.

I have completed training at the University of Guelph in the Certificate Program in Couple and Family Therapy Studies. Also, I have completed the externship training with Sue Johnson in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT). The goal of EFT is re-establishing the connection and bond between partners through exploring the emotional experience of the couple in the here and now. As shown through extensive research, EFT has been empirically proven to be an effective form of couples therapy.

I welcome all kinds of relationships and have experience working with married, unmarried, 2SLGBTQI+, and bi-racial couples.

If you’re both ready to show up for your relationship in a new way — I’m here to support that journey.
