Many couples come to therapy to address communication challenges, though in my experience things are rarely as simple as just figuring out the "right way" to talk to each other. Perhaps your interactions have become tense, or you find yourself having the same or similar arguments over and over. Or maybe things have gotten so strained between you that you barely feel safe or comfortable talking at all. Couples therapy can be both painful and joyful; it is an opportunity to heal wounds, reconnect, and rediscover intimacy.

We will generally meet once a week for about 50 minutes, with the possibility of longer or more frequent sessions depending on the work we want to do.

Some of the relationship issues I work with include:

-Entrenched and repetitive arguments that go nowhere
-Emotional distance and disconnection
-Biracial and bicultural issues
-Dealing with homophobia
-Parenting disagreements
-Pregnancy
-Dysfunctional families of origin
-Planning for the future and building shared goals

I am happy to provide video therapy for partners in two different locations (in California, where I am licensed to practice.)
