Couples and Relationship Counseling
Couples Counseling
Relationships are hard. Even the good ones. Even when you love each other. Even when you're committed to making it work. Getting two separate bodies of matter to agree all the time is going to be hard. We're going to run into each other sometimes.
Maybe you keep having the same fight over and over, just with different details. Maybe you've drifted apart and don't know how to find each other again. Maybe one or both of you is exhausted from trying to be heard, to be understood, to feel like you matter. Maybe the connection that used to feel easy now feels like work, or worse, impossible.
Here's what I know: most relationship struggles aren't about choosing the wrong person. They're about nervous systems that are out of sync, unhealed wounds that keep getting triggered, and communication patterns that create disconnection instead of closeness. Two people trying their best, missing each other in the process.
I work with couples using a trauma-informed, neurodivergent-affirming, somatic approach. We don't just talk about your problems, we work with your nervous systems, your attachment patterns, and your bodies' responses to conflict and connection.
Together, we'll work on:
Helping both nervous systems feel safe enough to come back online, so you're not fighting from a place of threat
Slowing down the conflict cycle to see what's actually happening beneath the surface
Working with regulation, not just communication, so the tools actually hold when things get hard
Telling old wounds from present reality, recognizing when you're reacting from the past versus responding to now
Rebuilding curiosity, grace, and repair for when things go wrong, because they will
I've completed extensive training in couples therapy. If one or both of you has ADHD, I understand the unique dynamics that creates.
You don't have to keep struggling alone. Relationships can heal. Patterns can change. You can find each other again.
