I work with couples to support, guide, and facilitate understanding and growth. My role is to help you develop insight, build emotional safety, and create tools for healthier connection. This is a place of collaboration, self-awareness, and repair, not blame or judgment.

  • Growth & Change: Navigating challenges, exploring change, and creating new meaning in your relationship
  • Attachment & Support: Meeting attachment needs and fostering a sense of being seen, understood, valued, and supported

  • Act as a referee or take sides in disagreements.
  • Give advice on what decisions you or your partner should make.
  • Solve your relationship problems for you.
  • Seek to find the “bad guy” or assign blame.
  • Force reconciliation or emotional connection.
  • Judge your feelings, choices, or relationship history.
