Attachment-based couples therapy isn't just about understanding the past; it's about creating new experiences in the present. I teach couples how to recognize their attachment styles,the moments when old wounds are activated and respond to each other in ways that build security rather than reinforce fear. This means learning to ask for what you need without criticism, to offer reassurance without resentment, and to create rituals of connection that help stay together.

My approach to marriage counseling is grounded in attachment theory and trauma-informed care. I believe that most marital struggles stem from unmet needs for connection, safety, and understanding. When we feel secure in our relationship, we can weather conflict, communicate openly, and grow together. When that security is threatened whether by betrayal, distance, or unresolved wounds the relationship suffers. My work helps couples rebuild that foundation of trust and safety.

I work w/ people who spend their lives helping others—therapists, healers, and caregivers—as well as anyone struggling with relationship challenges or career burnout. Exhaustion from holding space for everyone else's pain, wondering if you can keep doing this work sustainably, guilt about setting boundaries or taking time for yourself, compassion fatigue or vicarious trauma,the irony of helping others thrive while you're barely surviving. I help you the 'healer.'

In my practice, I help couples recognize how their attachment styles;anxious, avoidant, or disorganized create predictable patterns of pursuit and withdrawal. One partner reaches for connection and is met with distance. The other partner needs space but experiences it as abandonment. These aren't character flaws; they're adaptive strategies we developed long ago to stay safe in relationships. I can help couples see their conflict through an attachment lens, blame transforms into understanding.

Treatment is tailored to your specific challenges. If infidelity has occurred, we work through betrayal trauma, accountability, and rebuilding trust. If intimacy has declined, we explore emotional and physical barriers. If you're considering separation, we work toward clarity and, if needed, a compassionate uncoupling. For blended families, we address co-parenting and step-family dynamics. Each issue requires specialized attention within the broader framework of strengthening your bond.

Many of my clients have experienced complex trauma-repeated harm over time, often in childhood or within relationships. This type of trauma affects your sense of self, your ability to trust, and your expectations in relationships. Treatment for complex trauma takes time and involves not just processing events but rebuilding your core sense of safety, identity, and worthiness. We work on developing healthy boundaries, recognizing patterns that no longer serve you, and creating new security.
