Couples Therapy
From feeling distant and unappreciated to rediscovering intimacy, strengthening your connection, improving communication, and building a stronger, more trusting partnership.
It’s completely understandable to have questions and concerns about couples therapy—it’s a big step, and you may not know what to expect. You might wonder: How does couples therapy differ from other types of therapy? What if my partner doesn’t want to attend? How long will it take? Will it actually improve our relationship? What skills will we gain from this process? These are all valid questions, and you’re not alone in asking them. At the same time, the challenges you’re facing right now may make the idea of therapy feel even more daunting. Arguments that never seem to resolve, feeling unheard or emotionally unsafe, or dealing with a partner who withdraws or stonewalls can make opening up feel like a risk. Add to that the demands of a busy life, and finding the time and energy to prioritize these conversations can seem impossible.
Beneath these hesitations may be deeper struggles you’re carrying without even realising it. Childhood experiences, attachment wounds, or the parenting styles you grew up with can unconsciously shape how you show up in your relationship today. These influences might create cycles of conflict that feel all too familiar or lead to moments where you see patterns from your past playing out in ways you never wanted. It can feel frustrating and even like self-sabotage, leaving you stuck and disconnected from the love, connection, and happiness you truly want.
Taking the first step toward couples therapy can feel overwhelming, but it’s also a powerful act of courage and hope. It’s a sign that you’re ready to move forward and explore what’s possible for your relationship—and you don’t have to do it alone. I’m here to guide you every step of the way.

I know you want things to be different—you long to feel connected, loved, and truly understood. You want to rebuild trust, resolve lingering arguments, and become the couple you used to be—or even better, the couple you’ve always dreamed of being. But life has gotten in the way. Conversations have gone unfinished, arguments remain unresolved, and the disconnection between you has grown. Now is the time to change that.

You can have a relationship that lifts you up rather than drains you down, one where love feels natural and fulfilling again.
