Couples Therapy
In my couples work, I draw from the Gottman Method Couples Thearapy, a research-based approach grounded in over 40 years of studying what makes relationships succeed or fail. I have completed Level 1 Training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy, and I incorporate these research-based tools into my work with couples.
At the heart of this method is the Sound Relationship House, which helps partners strengthen their friendship, manage conflict more constructively, and create deeper shared meaning in their lives.
Through this process, couples learn to:
- Replace patterns of criticism, defensiveness, and withdrawal with healthier communication strategies.
- Understand and honor one another’s underlying needs and dreams, even in areas of recurring conflict.
- Build rituals of connection and foster trust, intimacy, and commitment.
What to Expect in Sessions
Couples sessions are 75–90 minutes long, giving us time to slow down conversations and practice new tools together.
While the number of meetings depends on your unique goals, many couples begin with a series of 6–10 sessions, with the option to continue for deeper, ongoing work.
Beyond skills and strategies, I also bring a relational psychoanalytic lens to this work. That means we don’t just focus on communication in the present, but also on the deeper patterns shaped by each partner’s history and how these play out in the relationship.
Couples therapy is not a sign of failure, it’s an acknowledgment that all relationships face challenges, and that reaching out for help is a profoundly human step. Together, we create space for connection, growth, and healing.
