Couples Therapy

Reconnect, communicate, and grow together.

Relationships take work — especially when life feels full, stress runs high, and parenting pulls your attention in every direction.

Whether you're feeling disconnected, stuck in the same argument, or just want to strengthen your bond, couples therapy can help you rebuild trust, improve communication, and feel closer again..

I’m trained in two evidence-based approaches for relationship work:

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)

Which helps couples understand and repair emotional patterns

Intimacy From The Inside Out (IFIO)

A relationship-based approach to Internal Family Systems that helps each partner stay connected to themselves while creating intimacy with each other

I offer both virtual sessions and in-person sessions in Lake Forest.

Common issues I help with:

  • Communication breakdowns

  • Feeling more like roommates than partners

  • Parenting stress and different parenting styles

  • Breaking out of repetitive arguments and recycled conflict

  • Rebuilding connection and trust

  • Wanting to feel more seen, heard, and understood

If you’re ready to grow together, I’d love to support your relationship with skill, care, and compassion.
