Couples Therapy 

How can we better understand our closest relationships? What makes some relationships seem to easily work while others struggle to stay afloat?  

Early life experiences impact the kinds of relationships we form and how those relationships evolve across time. More than we recognize, each of us has developed a kind of “relationship DNA” — a way of behaving in close relationships that influences whom we love, why, and most importantly how.

One of the most remarkable aspects of therapy is learning how relationships serve as a vehicle for emotional growth.

For many clients, the most remarkable aspect of therapy is learning how relationships serve as a vehicle for emotional growth. When we understand how we interact with others, we see ourselves more clearly, too. 

I use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), an evidence-based intervention,  to help individuals and couples become aware of their interactional patterns and better equipped to maintain meaningful relationships.

In research studies, 70-75% of couples move from distress to recovery, with enduring results beyond the course of therapy.

EFT can help couples work through ruptures in intimacy and trust to emerge from therapy more secure in themselves and their partner bond. The efficacy for EFT is astounding. In research studies, 70-75% of couples move from distress to recovery, with enduring results beyond the course of therapy.
