Couples Therapy
I often work with married couples, interracial couples, couples with different cultural/ethic backgrounds, pre-marital couples, partnered people who are not married, couples along the LGBTQIAP+ TGNC span, and people in polyamorous/open relationships. The clients I see are often parents who want to keep themselves from passing the legacy of their own inheritance/maladaptive patterns on to their own kids.
You’ll learn to be accountable for your current behavior, tend to the hurt parts of you, and show up differently in the present moment with your partner(s). We’ll work on this by relationally embodying “full respect living” in our sessions. We’re aiming for living with integrity: what often evolves is a deep, fundamental characterological transformation: a change (for the better!) in who — and how — you think you can be (with yourself and others) and how you show up in the world, relationally.
Learn to move from…
Individual empowerment to relational empowerment.
We learn how to repair ruptures and the new cycle of harmony, disharmony, and repair. We learn how to practice — moment to moment and breath to breath — respect and intimacy.
Family Therapy for Adults
When children grow into adults, many families struggle to find the right balance between the parenting they’ve known, and the new relationship with their adult children that lies ahead. If you’re an adult child (20’s and beyond), you may feel a push/pull, where there are things about your parent(s) that you still appreciate, but that there are other pieces they just don’t get, and you need to make sure they understand who you are today, in order to maintain a healthy relationship going forward.
I can help - I facilitate conversations between adult children and their parent(s) about relational ruptures, and teach you the skills and tools you need to repair. Everyone deserves to feel safe in their relationships - especially with family.
If you’ve cared about one another enough to find me, I’m hopeful we can work towards solutions that help you live the life you’ve wanted: with the respect, connection, and space you need.
