Services for Every Couple
Our couples counseling services are designed to support every type of couple, no matter where you are in your relationship journey. With a focus on open communication and understanding, we provide a space for partners to strengthen their connection.

Improve Communication Skills
Let's find out what's really stopping you and your partner from expressing your needs in a compassionate and connected way.

Recover from Infidelity
Many couples arrive at counseling after a breach of trust. Together we will find a way to understand how we got her and rebuild trust.

Develop Cooperative Coparenting
Using the skills we develop in session we can develop a healthy co parenting relationship that will benefit you and your children.
Conflicted about Your Relationship?
If you are reading this, you may be feeling that aspects of your relationship no longer meet your needs. A hopeful part of you may be telling you to fix it. A despondent part of you may be wanting you to give up. An angry part of you may be explaining how your partner needs to change. Confusing? Let's bring some clarity. I offer couples and marriage counseling that encourages us to look inside ourselves for the solutions we need.
Overview
Using the Internal Family Systems (IFS) Model and its adjacent couples model, Intimacy from the Inside Out (IFIO), we can bring you and your partner closer to understanding your true Selves.
Together we will learn to identify and listen to the parts of us that want to protect and defend us within our relationships. Next, we'll learn how to identify these parts' needs and how to fulfill them within ourselves and our relationships. Learn more...
