Couples Therapy

Couples therapy is a space for you and your partner to stop pretending everything’s okay when it’s not. If your relationship is weighed down by past wounds, unspoken truths, or recurring conflicts, this is where we address them head-on. We’ll work together to uncover how your personal histories—especially the wounds of queer shame or fear of rejection—are affecting your connection today.

How Does Couples Therapy Help?

We’ll go deeper than surface-level disagreements. Together, we’ll get to the root of what’s causing the distance between you and your partner. This work is about healing the shame that keeps you from fully connecting and learning to repair when things go wrong. We’ll focus on rebuilding trust, intimacy, and mutual respect, so your relationship can be a source of strength, not conflict.

When Should You Consider Couples Therapy?

You’re here because you already know something’s not right. Maybe old wounds keep resurfacing, or you feel like you’re living in parallel lives rather than as a true partnership. Maybe there’s fear or shame that’s keeping you from being fully present with each other. It’s time to stop ignoring the problems and start healing them. The time is now.

Is It Ever Too Late for Couples Therapy?

It’s never too late. Whether you’ve been together for years or are just starting to face these challenges, couples therapy can offer you both a way to heal and rebuild. Even if you’re contemplating separation, therapy can help you do it in a way that honors the love and respect you once shared. And if healing is what you both desire, we’ll work together to find a path forward that feels true to both of you.

What Does a Couples Therapy Session Include?

Couples therapy sessions are 75 minutes because deep healing takes time. We’ll work through the tough issues in real-time—communicating honestly, learning to repair harm, and building healthier patterns. We’ll often set up “experiments” to try between sessions, so you can put new skills into practice and continue growing together.

What Can You Expect from Couples Therapy?

Expect to understand yourselves—and each other—more deeply than you ever have before. You’ll learn how your individual histories, especially the wounds of queer and homo-shame, are impacting your connection. And you’ll gain the skills to repair the relationship quickly, with compassion, whenever challenges arise.

Who is Couples Therapy For?

This is for any couple who wants to heal, grow, and deepen their connection. If you’re struggling with intimacy, trust, or the emotional scars of past trauma, this work will help you rebuild a relationship that supports both partners’ mental and emotional health.

What Techniques Are Used?

I take a trauma-informed, neurobiological approach to couples therapy. That means we focus on how each partner’s history impacts the relationship today. We use techniques like mindful awareness, compassionate communication, breathwork, and Clinical EFT to repair harm and build emotional resilience—together.

Why Online Couples Therapy?

Online therapy lets you work from the comfort of your own space—where you feel safest. Whether it’s cuddling up with a pet, being surrounded by things that calm you, or simply avoiding the hassle of traveling, online therapy offers flexibility while still delivering deep, transformative healing. What matters most is that we’ll be building trust and working through the tough issues, just like we would in person.
