If you’re the partner who constantly thinks about the relationship, lying awake at night replaying conversations and scanning for signs of distance, this is for you. You likely feel a deep, aching need for reassurance and connection, but the more you pursue it, the more your partner seems to pull away. The pursuit and withdrawal leaves you both feeling lonely, misunderstood, and stuck in a cycle where your very attempts to feel close accidentally create more disconnection. You aren't "too needy"—you are yearning for a secure bond.
My practice is dedicated to helping couples like you break this exact negative cycle and fundamentally restructure your bond from the inside out. Using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) as my proven roadmap, we go beyond simple communication tricks. Instead, we get to the heart of the matter: the underlying fears and emotional needs driving this dance. I will help you both step out of your roles of "pursuer" and "withdrawer," creating a new, safe emotional experience where you can express your vulnerabilities and hear each other in a way that finally fosters secure attachment.
My specialized training in complex trauma provides a crucial lens for this work. I understand how past wounds and trauma responses can complicate your present connection. We will gently navigate this terrain, transforming these challenges from relationship threats into opportunities for profound, shared healing and a more resilient partnership.
