Discover the patterns keeping you stuck.

Therapy that helps couples and individuals understand what’s going on, reduce reactivity, and find a clearer way forward.

Does this sound familiar?

Most couples and individuals don’t start therapy because of one moment. They start because the same moments keep repeating. Conversations escalate, topics get avoided, or theres a sense something important isn’t getting through. If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure what to do next, you’re not alone.

  • You keep having the same argument with no resolution

  • One of you shuts down while the other escalates

  • Small issues turn into big fights

  • You avoid certain topics because it’s not worth it

  • You feel misunderstood, lonely, or on edge

  • The distance is growing and it scares you

  • You don’t know what to do differently

  • You want clarity and a calmer way forward

These patterns don’t mean you’re broken. They usually mean something important isn’t being heard or felt safely and the way you’re trying to fix it is getting hijacked in the moment.

You don’t have to have it all figured out before reaching out. A brief consultation can help you decide next steps.

What working together looks like.

Our work is focused, collaborative, and paced to help bring clarity to the underlying issues.

We slow things down

When conflict or tension shows up, it’s easy to get reactive or shut down. We take time to slow these moments down so you can notice what’s happening internally and between you—without blame or escalation.

We understand the pattern

Together, we identify the patterns that keep repeating: what triggers them, how each person responds, and what gets missed in the process. 

We practice new ways of responding

Insight alone isn’t enough. Sessions include practical tools and in-the-moment guidance so you can respond differently when it matters, both in session and at home.
