Couples Therapy
Structure of Sessions
The early stages of couples therapy focus on building a strong therapeutic alliance, establishing trust, and collaboratively clarifying your goals for treatment. Depending on the needs of the relationship, I may meet with each partner individually for a few sessions as part of the overall process. I regularly incorporate feedback to ensure our work remains aligned with your relationship goals and meaningful progress is being made.

Treatment Interventions
In my work with couples, I take an attachment-focused, communication-centered, and psychoeducational approach. I incorporate evidence-based tools to help you heal relational wounds, repair attachment ruptures, and build healthier patterns of connection. You will receive direct guidance and coaching to support clearer communication and increased compassion-both toward your partner and yourself.
I also specialize in premarital counseling, using a structured framework designed to facilitate essential conversations that strengthen emotional intimacy, clarity, and mutual understanding as you prepare for long-term partnership.
