About
By now you probably know that fighting about the dishes is never just about the dishes, issues in the bedroom are never just about sex, and infidelity is never just about an affair. Each of these are but tiny reflections of larger dances we do with our partners that give light to how we fight, how we communicate, and ultimately how we learned to love.
I work with couples in-person in Pasadena and virtually throughout California and center my approach primarily in attachment theory and Sue Johnson's Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy. I love helping couples uncover core issues and build new tools to get back to the kind of deep, fulfilling connection for which they ultimately yearn.
It's normal to feel a bit nervous about starting couples therapy. But whether you're at the beginning of your relationship, stuck in a rut, finding your way through a betrayal, or even in the process of calling it quits, having an objective and empathetic third party can relieve some of the pressure and guide you back to connection while you figure it out.
