Couples Therapy
Specialized therapy for couples facing communication breakdowns, emotional distance, or infidelity. Using EFT and Gottman Method techniques, we help partners rebuild trust, improve communication patterns, and rekindle emotional connections. Sessions address both immediate conflicts and underlying attachment needs, creating lasting improvements in relationship satisfaction and resilience through structured, science-based interventions.
Individual Therapy
Emotion-focused treatment for individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, or life transitions. Through AEDP and EMDR techniques, clients explore emotional patterns, heal past trauma, and develop self-awareness. This process fosters personal growth and improved relationships by addressing core emotional experiences and helping clients reconnect with their authentic selves through compassionate, evidence-based therapeutic approaches.
Discernment Therapy
Specialized support for couples considering divorce who need clarity about their relationship future. This structured process helps partners understand relationship patterns, communication barriers, and emotional needs without pressure to reconcile. Focused on creating understanding and respectful decision-making, it provides tools for navigating this challenging life transition with greater awareness and emotional safety.
Emotionally Focused Therapy
Proven approach to creating secure emotional bonds in relationships. Developed by Dr. Sue Johnson, EFT addresses negative interaction cycles and hidden emotional needs. Through this method, couples learn to express vulnerabilities constructively, creating lasting improvements in emotional connection and relationship resilience using attachment theory principles and structured therapeutic techniques.
Gottman Method
Research-driven approach to strengthening relationships through improved communication and friendship. Based on Dr. John Gottman's decades of research, this method teaches practical skills for conflict management, emotional connection, and shared meaning. Sessions focus on building relationship resilience through structured exercises that enhance appreciation, conflict resolution, and emotional attunement between partners.
