A bit about my approach to therapy

Welcome to the transformative journey of emotional connection and healing in your relationship. I'm an Emotionally Focused Couples Therapist. I want to extend a warm and empathetic welcome to you and your partner as we embark on a path toward fostering deeper emotional bonds, understanding, and intimacy within your relationship.

My goal is to help you and your partner navigate the complexities of your relationship and work through the challenges that may be hindering your emotional connection.

What you can expect from our first session

Emotional responsiveness and a secure emotional bond are essential for a healthy and thriving relationship. Through a safe, therapeutic environment, I will guide you in exploring the emotional patterns and attachment dynamics that influence your interactions as a couple. By delving into the core emotions, needs, and vulnerabilities that underlie your relationship dynamics, we can begin to create lasting change and cultivate a deeper, more fulfilling connection.
