Couple's Counseling

❤️ Relationships take work — therapy helps Whether you’re dating, married, or somewhere in between, every relationship has its ups and downs. Maybe you’re feeling disconnected, stuck in the same argument loop, or just not on the same page anymore. Couples therapy isn’t about blaming — it’s about slowing down, understanding each other better, and finding your way forward together. 💬 Reasons you might be here: Communication feels hard or always leads to conflict You're more like roommates than partners lately There's been a betrayal or break in trust You're navigating big changes — kids, moves, career stress You want to feel closer emotionally or physically If any of this sounds familiar, you’re not alone — and you’re in the right place. 🔍 What to Expect in Sessions I focus on your relationship as the client. We’ll get curious about the patterns keeping you stuck and build skills to shift them. You’ll learn how to: Communicate with more clarity and compassion Understand each other’s needs and triggers Repair after conflict and reconnect with intention Practice emotional safety and empathy in real-time I sometimes give between-session "homework" to help you put new tools into practice where it matters most — in your day-to-day life. 🧠 My Approach As a trauma-informed therapist, I create space for both of you to feel heard, without taking sides. I also weave in EMDR and parts work when individual histories are affecting the relationship in the present. This is a collaborative, compassionate space — not a place for shame or blame. 👫 Who I Work With Couples who are dating, engaged, or married Long-term partners feeling disconnected Blended families or co-parents Couples recovering from infidelity Partners where one or both work in high-stress caregiving roles LGBTQ+ affirming 🏳️‍🌈 All relationships welcome. 🗓 Book a Session Sessions are 50 minutes and take place virtually as long as both partners are in North Carolina Book Your Session 💬 Not sure if couples therapy is the right fit?

Most sessions include both partners, but occasionally I’ll meet with one of you separately to support the work. Is it too late for us? If you’re both still showing up — even just by clicking this page — it’s not too late. We’ll work together to clarify what healing and growth could look like for your relationship.
