How We Support You
Couples therapy is primarily Gottman-informed, with a focus on helping partners understand their relationship patterns, communicate more effectively, and strengthen friendship, trust, and emotional connection.
When helpful, we may also explore intergenerational patterns and individual inner conflict that influence how each partner shows up in the relationship.
Together, we may work on:
-
Strengthen your friendship and emotional connection
-
Improve communication and conflict management
-
Explore family-of-origin and intergenerational patterns
-
Understand how past experiences influence your marriage
-
Create shared meaning, values, and goals
-
Build a marriage that feels like a true partnership
Develop the skills to grow together—not just maintain the relationship you started with
