Intimate Partner Relationships 

Good couple's therapy goes far beyond learning communication skills. Understanding the intersection of culture, socio-economic factors, attachment patterns, communication styles and early life history, to name a few, is fundamental to creating healthier, more fulfilling relationships that get stronger with time. My approach to couple's therapy is helping you and your partner gain deeper understanding to reshape how you relate to each-other and redefine how silent but powerful societal forces work in your favor.  Through sensitive, trauma-informed care I will walk beside you as you start to create a more secure and meaningful connection.

Understanding Attachment

Our early experiences profoundly shape how we connect with others, influencing everything from our emotional regulation to our approach to intimacy. These foundational experiences create patterns that affect:

• How we regulate emotions and manage relationship stress

• Our capacity for trust and vulnerability

• The expectations we bring to relationships

• Our comfort with intimacy and closeness

• Our communication patterns

• Our ability to resolve conflicts effectively
