Relationships are the place where we feel profound moments of happiness and fulfillment, but also the place where we can feel most exposed, vulnerable, and dissatisfied.
My specialty lies in working with couples (both married and unmarried) to help illuminate and reveal the unhelpful patterns that exist within the relationship that prohibit closeness. Identifying, understanding, and then changing these dynamics within a relationship often leads to more honesty within the relationship, a deeper sense of emotional closeness (intimacy) within the couple, and an increase in sexual desire and sexual satisfaction.
My role is to help individuals and couples understand the two most fundamental drives- wanting to be in a relationship (the we) and wanting to be our own person (the me) at the same time. Holding these two ideas at the same time, not prioritizing one over the other- is an incredibly necessary, but also difficult developmental process that is built into all emotionally committed relationships, and actively affects the emotional and sexual realms.
