Couples Therapy

Romantic relationships can be exhilarating, healing,  fun, and beautiful. Yet, romantic relationships are also often painful, confusing, and frustrating. A partner often knows exactly how to make you feel deeply cared for and loved, but they also know how to poke at all of your sore spots. Couples therapy can be helpful when you both feel like you keep having the same arguments but are no closer to resolving them. In these situations, you may feel like you are speaking totally different languages to each other. Couples therapy can also be helpful in a crisis, whether that be a betrayal within the relationship or an external traumatic event outside the relationship. In either of these situations, you may not be able to even see a path forward.

In therapy, we will work to create a space where each of you feels heard and seen. This will help reset your nervous systems, promote a sense of safety, and increase each of your capacities to be reflective and communicate.  We will map out your relationship’s unique patterns: naming your strengths, learning where you get stuck, seeing how you trigger each other, and gaining capacities to communicate and connect in deeper ways.
