Most “communication problems” start at the attachment level. When that root is missed, talks turn into misunderstandings, resentment, and distance.
Difficult topics
Some subjects go from calm to chaos fast. You try to talk and it blows up. Couples therapy helps you slow it down, find safety, and make those talks workable.“Here we go again”
Recurring complaints and defensiveness signal a negative cycle. You both feel stuck. Emotionally Focused Therapy offers a clear map out so you can feel supported and connected again.Conflict
Every couple has conflict. Health comes from repair. Are your conflicts productive, or do they leave more resentment and disconnection? We can build a repair process that strengthens the bond. -

Infidelity brings pain, crisis and chaos. As hard as it may be to imagine right now, your relationship may become stronger after the process of healing after infidelity.
The majority of couples, between 60% and 75% stay together after infidelity, but the quality of the relationship and level of satisfaction can vary widely.About 1/4 of couples who experience infidelity report rebuilding a stronger relationship post-affair, especially if they engage in couples therapy and work through the underlying issues.
That level of success depends on several factors, such as the severity of the betrayal, the commitment to healing, and whether a couple receives professional help.

Intimacy
Intimacy issues are common and they cut deep. They touch both emotional closeness and physical connection.Sexual dissatisfaction
Differences in preferences, quality, or frequency. Old conflicts that spill into the bedroom. Trouble talking about sex at all. We slow it down, build safety, and make these talks workable.Mismatched desires
Libido or preference gaps can leave one partner feeling pressured and the other unseen. Over time this erodes self-esteem and closeness. We create a shared plan that honors both bodies.Decline in frequency
Stress, health, aging, and disconnection can shrink sex and affection. Less touch can feel like rejection. We rebuild gentle contact and clear invites so closeness returns.

Information about Insurance
I am an out-of-network provider, which means I offer private-pay therapy - I accept credit, debit and HSA cards.
The good news is that while I don't accept insurance directly, many PPO insurance plans cover out-of-network providers, so you could be reimbursed for part of my fee.
Ask your insurance about couples therapy reimbursement.
Couples therapy is a qualified medical expense for HSA accounts and tax purposes.
