Couples Therapy

I strive to help couples find intimacy, connection and understanding

in support of goals we set together.

At my practice, I welcome all individuals and clients, regardless of, and in celebration of, race, sexual orientation, gender identity, immigration status, religious affiliation, and relationship expression.

The Gottman Method is an approach to Couples Therapy…

As a Certified Gottman Therapist, I help couples find their way back to each other using methods that are based on forty years of research. I spend time learning about you, and customize our work together based on a thorough assessment. Our sessions focus on both connection-building and management of conflict, and can include healing from trauma and infidelity.

Assessment Phase.

The assessment phase involves 5 parts:

Couple Narrative 80-Min: During the Couple Narrative, I will meet with you both to explore your concerns, gather a history of the relationship, observe your management of conflict, and provide a basic introduction to Gottman Method Couples Therapy.

Relationship Survey (At Home): Each partner is provided access to complete an online assessment “Relationship Checkup” that measures various aspects of the relationship’s well-being. The assessment will be analyzed and integrated into the treatment plan. 

Individual Interviews (30-70 min Each): I will meet with each partner individually to gather your personal histories and explore your hopes and concerns about the therapy process. 

Goals and Feedback (Approximately 80min): I will meet with you both to discuss the results of my assessment, the “Relationship Checkup” analysis, and my observations and recommendations for treatment. Together we will discuss treatment goals and develop a plan, in addition I will offer exercises for you both to do at home together.

The Assessment takes place on one day or spread out over 2-3 weeks. Cost for Assessment Parts 1-5: $1000

Extended sessions are a condensed and intensive approach to relationship therapy that provides an opportunity for couples to make progress more quickly. This is a great fit for couples who are eager to increase their connection, communication and intimacy at a faster pace, couples who must travel for sessions, or couples needing to heal from infidelity. Couples who have experienced this form of therapy usually describe it as life-changing and transformative.
