My work, including with romantic relationships, revolves around understanding and connection. I offer a safe space where you can both express yourselves, ensuring that both your intentions and impact on each other are truly heard and taken seriously. My style is non-judgmental, empathetic, and clear: I listen attentively and ask insightful questions to work through tensions and conflicts. Together, we transform these insights into greater clarity, trust, mutual learning, and closeness. You'll also have the opportunity to practice and master new communication skills, empowering you to navigate all sorts of challenging conversations in life.

Relationship Therapy
A relationship can bring so much joy, support, and meaning, yet sometimes it feels difficult or complicated. Perhaps conversations keep stalling, distance has developed, or old pain points keep recurring. You long to connect, but find that the patterns you’re stuck in are blocking that connection. In such a situation, relationship therapy can help you regain clarity, trust, and connection. Together, we’ll explore what lies beneath the tension and how you can communicate more openly and honestly with each other, reaching agreements that work for both of you.
What relationship problems can you come to me with?
- Lack of balance between different interests (relationship, work, social life, parenting, me-time)
- Lack of connection, trust, emotional security
- Old pain in the relationship that keeps resurfacing
- Communication/behavior patterns that lead to tension, misunderstandings, and conflict
- Excessive discrepancy between expectations and reality
- Blaming language that leads to shame and guilt
- Lack of honest expression, e.g., setting boundaries, (being able to) say no
- Coping with grief, loss, or major challenges, e.g., illness; empty nest; a desire for polyamory
- Coping with anger and building resentment
- Challenges/conflict within the family, e.g., a death; dealing with a teenage child; challenging situations with a family member
Contraindication: I do not work with couples experiencing physical violence, nor with couples without the shared goal of connecting.
This is how I work
Conflicts and tensions are part of life – in relationships, families, and collaborations. However, you’ve likely never learned how to deal with them in a way that brings connection.
All my work revolves around building human connection, and that’s why I primarily use Nonviolent Communication (NVC), founded by Marshall Rosenberg. I guide you step-by-step to experience greater safety, clarity, and mutual understanding. This begins with slowing down: creating space to express everything without rushing to an immediate solution. You learn to hear each other again, beyond accusations and ingrained patterns, so that the underlying needs become visible. From this foundation, we explore which creative next steps or agreements work for both of you (taking all your needs into account).
In a program of 5 to 10 sessions, couples often experience greater peace and connection. In longer programs, you also learn lasting communication skills that will help you better manage future tensions or conflicts. This will not only create more clarity and trust in your relationship, but also more resilience in how you deal with challenges together (in and outside of the relationship).
