Couples
Relationships can be our greatest source of love and connection - and also our greatest source of pain. When trust is broken, when communication collapses, or when intimacy feels unsafe, it's common to find yourselves trapped in a cycle of conflict you can't escape alone.
My approach to couples therapy is designed to help you break that cycle. I provide a safe, neutral space where the goal is not to decide who is right or wrong, but to understand what happens 'between" you. Together, we will slow down your interactions to discover the deeper wounds, fears, and unmet needs driving the conflict.
In this space, we will work to:
- Rebuild trust after betrayal or infidelity
- Explore fears of intimacy and closeness
- Untangle repeating conflicts and communication breakdowns
- Understand the influence of family legacies and cultural differences on your current bond
- Navigate life transitions together, such as parenthood, loss, career shifts
- Create new ways of relating where both partners feel heard, respected and safe.
"You can’t go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending.” — C.S. Lewis.
Sometimes, present-day difficulties are shaped by older wounds and inherited patterns. We will explore how early experiences of attachment, betrayal, or abandonment can replay in your relationship, moving beyond simply "fixing fights" to transforming the very foundation of your connection.
Some couples come in a moment of crisis, others seek to strengthen a fragile bond or to part ways with more harmony and understanding. Whatever your reason, this work is about transformation - for the relationship, and for each person within it.
If you are ready to begin the work, I invite you to get in touch with me to schedule a consultation.
Couples Therapy FAQ
Yes, couples sessions usually involve both partners together. In some cases, I may suggest a brief individual check-in, but the main focus is always the relationship between you
Not at all. Many couples come before things reach breaking point - for example, to deepen intimacy, improve communication, or navigate life changes. Others do come during crisis (such as betrayal or infidelity). Both are valid starting points.
It's common for one partner to feel more motivated than the other. In our first consultation, I create space for both of you to express your hopes and concerns. Therapy works best when both partners feel heard and respected from the beginning
No. My role is not to decide who is 'right' or 'wrong.' Instead, I help you understand the patterns beneath conflict, so you can reconnect from a place of honesty and vulnerability.
It depends on your goals and the depth of the issues. Some couples benefit from short-term focused work (6-12) sessions), while others choose longer-term therapy to rebuild trust and create lasting change. If you would like to discuss this further or have any other questions, please get in touch.
