Stuck in the Same Arguments and Longing to Feel Close Again?
You don’t have to figure this out on your own. Whether you’re dating, married, or somewhere in between, couples counseling can help you improve communication, rebuild connection, and feel like you’re on the same team again.
You may have done individual therapy and seen personal growth, yet are looking to grow in your relationship. You’ve read the books, listened to the podcasts, followed relationship experts, and even applied your communication skills (which ended in tears... or silence). Nothing seems to stick. One partner feels like they’re dragging the relationship up a mountain, while the other just wants a moment of peace without an argument. You are exhausted. You feel alone. You desperately want to get back to each other.
I bring warmth, clarity, and a structured approach to help you express what’s really going on so you feel truly heard. In marriage therapy and couples counseling, my work isn’t about assigning blame, keeping score, or endlessly revisiting the past. It’s about creating a safe space where you can finally say what matters, and guiding you back to a relationship that feels supportive, secure, and deeply connected.
