Couple’s Counseling

I’m a relationship counselor specializing in high-conflict couples.

I work with partners navigating the pain of infidelity, addiction, and betrayal—challenges that can deeply damage trust, but don’t have to end the relationship. Repair is possible. Drawing from the Gottman Method, I help couples recognize patterns like constant criticism and contempt—clear red flags that erode connection. Using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) by Dr. Sue Johnson, I guide couples to uncover the deeper emotional cycles beneath their arguments by exploring both secondary and primary emotions. It's rarely about the surface content of the conflict—it's about the need for emotional safety, connection, and secure attachment. Together, we can rebuild the foundation of trust by understanding core fears such as abandonment and how each partner’s attachment style impacts the relationship.

My client in relationship counseling is the ‘relationship/marriage.’ We process what serves the relationship and take the focus away from individuals.

These interventions require a strong therapeutic alliance between the therapist and client, and trust that the couple isn’t being singled out for criticism. If you think we might be a good match or would like to learn more about me, please reach out to schedule a complimentary 45-minute consultation session.
