I understand that when a couple reaches out to me for help it is usually because they find themselves in a painful place they never intended to find themselves in when they first started out together as a couple. Reaching out for help can be wrought with shame, anger, confusion and fear - fear of loss, fear of the truth, fear that healing and change may be out of reach.
In my work with couples, I create a nonjudgmental and safe holding space so that each partner feels supported in coming forth and sharing their most honest feelings. For it is only when we speak our truths can true change, transformation and healing occur. Because couples therapy is a huge investment of trust, time, energy and resources, it is crucial from the beginning to clarify what is workable and define what the work that we begin together should focus on.
As your couples therapist, I am an active, unbiased participant in this process with the goal to help both partners find a path towards health, healing and satisfaction. I am an empathic listener who seeks to simplify what can often feel overwhelming and convoluted. I help you slow things down, deconstruct and redirect habitual destructive patterns and help guide you to stay with what is most important so that clarity and growth can be gained.
Holding a deep respect for the couple and the world they have created together, I understand what it is to be invited into your private world when you are feeling most vulnerable. I put my heart and soul into this work to support you both in the best way possible. I look forward to hearing from you.
