Couples Therapy
In couples therapy we meet for longer sessions, typically 60-75 minutes. This helps the work progress more quickly and supports earlier stabilization.
I tend to be engaged and directive in couples work with the hope of creating an environment that is warm, responsive, sturdy, and safe.

Couples therapy is one of my favorite things to do.
Here are a few things I focus on…
Helping each person stay connected to themselves so that they can connect with each other from a grounded place.
Developing an embodied awareness of self and other.
Cultivating a felt experience of goodwill and love so that the atmosphere is safe enough to tell the truth.
Creating space for each partner to turn toward the wounded parts of themselves, process trauma, and move away from fragmentation and toward wholeness.

I typically meet with couples weekly until things feel connected and well resourced. From that point, I often move to every other week, then monthly, and eventually titrate down to as needed.
