Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy
Find freedom from conflict patterns. Deepen emotional intimacy. Most couples come to therapy because something in the connection feels out of reach. Communication breaks down, small moments turn into big arguments, or one or both partners feel distant, unheard, or alone.
I practice Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), a research-backed model designed to help couples understand and repair the deeper emotional patterns that keep them stuck.
Rather than focusing only on surface-level issues or communication skills, I help you explore the emotional needs and fears underneath conflict so you can begin to respond to each other from a place of vulnerability and care, not reactivity or self-protection.
In our work together, we’ll:
Slow down your negative cycle so you can both understand what’s really happening
Explore what emotions and needs are driving your disconnection
Learn to share vulnerably, listen openly, and respond with empathy
Rebuild safety, trust, and intimacy—emotionally and physically
You don’t need to be perfect communicators to find each other again. You just need a safe space to feel, speak, and listen in a new way.
We’ll help your relationship become a place of safety again, where each of you can show up fully and be met with presence, understanding, and love.
“Learning to love and be loved is, in effect, about learning to tune into our emotions so that we know what we need from our partner and expressing those desires openly.”
