Couples Therapy: My Approach

I support couples in navigating relationship challenges and strengthening emotional connection. Together, we explore recurring patterns in a safe, compassionate space—improving communication, rebuilding trust, and fostering healthier dynamics. Therapy may guide partners toward deeper intimacy or, when needed, help them separate with integrity.

Between sessions, couples are encouraged to apply insights and tools at home to reinforce progress.

Therapeutic Framework

I integrate Emotion-Focused Therapy and Imago Relationship Therapy. This blended approach restores emotional and physical bonds through vulnerability, empathy, and mutual responsiveness. Imago work helps couples understand how early relational experiences shape current triggers and reactions—transforming conflict into opportunities for healing and growth.

My sessions emphasize:

• Empathic listening and validation

• Recognition of emotional triggers

• Rebuilding safety and trust

• Conscious, compassionate communication

First Session

Our initial session is a two-way assessment. I’ll listen to both partners to understand your relationship dynamics, concerns, and goals. You’ll have space to ask questions about my approach and determine if we’re a good fit. Feeling anxious or uncertain is normal—my aim is to create a calm, respectful environment from the start.
