Evidence-Based Therapy That Works
We don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. We focus on practical, solution-focused strategies to get you unstuck.
Gottman Couples Therapy
Research shows that happy couples "turn toward" each other in small moments. We use the Gottman approach to help you deepen understanding, manage conflict, and rebuild trust through practical, everyday tools.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT helps you identify and challenge unhelpful thoughts that fuel miscommunication. Together, we develop positive thinking patterns that lead to clearer communication and a stronger emotional bond.
Functional Family Therapy (FFT)
Highly effective for couples stuck in high-conflict cycles. This solution-focused approach improves conflict management and reduces behavioral issues, fostering a more connected partnership.
The Science of Connection: We incorporate self-compassion practices which neuroscience shows can strengthen the parts of the brain linked to happiness, resilience, and empathy.
Practical Tools to Improve Your Bond
We believe small changes lead to big shifts. You don't have to wait for your first session to start practicing new ways of connecting.
The "15-Minute" Rule
Notice what happens right before you fight. Most arguments don’t start with the topic itself; they start because someone is tired, stressed, or felt dismissed earlier. Pay attention to the 15 minutes before things go sideways.
The "Who Decides" Agreement
Decide ahead of time: What dollar amount requires a joint discussion? Who has the final say on social commitments? Clear agreements prevent most "Why didn't you ask me?" conflicts.
The Monthly Check-in
Dedicate 20 minutes once a month to three questions: What’s working for us? What needs our attention? How can I support you better this month? Structure keeps these from turning into complaint sessions.
While these tools are a great start, they are most effective when combined with professional guidance to address deeper patterns.
Navigating Your Relationship Journey
That is completely okay! You can still meet with me for individual counseling. Focusing on your own growth often leads to positive changes that ripple into your relationship. Sometimes, the positive impact you experience may even inspire your partner to view therapy with a more open mind later on.
There is no set timeline. If you’re facing challenges that feel difficult to manage on your own, it’s never too early. Commitment to growth—not how long you've been together—is the key factor in making therapy effective.
On average, couples therapy lasts about 12 sessions. Research shows that 65% of cases continue for up to 20 sessions, while nearly 90% are completed within 50 sessions. We will work at a pace that fits your unique goals.
Most insurance companies do not cover couples therapy as they view relationship struggles as a "condition of life" rather than a medical diagnosis. We operate as a private pay service to ensure the highest level of confidentiality and personalized care.
Don’t put your happiness on hold—let’s take the next step.
