Improve your relationship

All couples welcome, mixed gender and same gender

If your relationships don't feel good, the rest of your life probably doesn't either

You deserve a couples therapist who really gets you, your lifestyle, and what you need. It’s important to find someone who specializes in working with couples.

If you're a gay or lesbian couple, you shouldn't have to go into detail about your identity or teach your therapist about it. And if you’re polyamorous or in an open relationship, you want a therapist who gets it and won’t judge you.

The longer you put off dealing with problems in your relationship, the tougher it gets to fix things and get back on track. I’ve seen how reaching out for help early on can really help couples and avoid making things worse down the line.

Remember, choosing to attend couples therapy is not a sign of weakness or failure. Admitting that you need support in your relationship takes strength and courage.

My approach

Personalized

I’m all about making your experience personal! I can’t wait to get to know you and the special dynamics of your relationship—because every relationship is truly one of a kind.

Comprehensive

After we get to know each other in the first session, you'll fill out a really helpful research-based assessment at home. It measures how satisfied you are in your relationship and gives you a clear look at both the good stuff and the areas that need some work.

Treatment that works

This is where the real work happens. You’ll participate in joint and some individual sessions. In between sessions, you will have homework to practice what you learn. Once we pinpoint the areas that need some work, we'll dive in and start making things better.

Interactive

This isn’t about just sitting on the couch and bickering with your partner while the therapist plays referee. It's about learning new ways to handle things and actually practicing those skills. If you keep doing what you’ve always done, you’ll keep getting the same results. It’s time to switch things up and make things better, and that’s what we’re focused on!

You deserve a relationship that feels good!

Learning and Fun always included!

Relationships make life sparkle!
