How do you know when it is time for couples therapy?
If you could have figured it out on your own, you would have already. Sometimes it takes a professional to help a relationship get unstuck, and back on track. It may be time for couples therapy when the same arguments keep happening without real resolution, when distance feels heavier than closeness, or when trust has been broken and you don’t know how to repair it. If you find yourselves avoiding certain conversations, walking on eggshells, questioning whether things can truly change, or feeling more like opponents than partners, those are signs something needs attention—not that the relationship is broken, but that it needs support. Therapy can be a place to pause the cycle and begin understanding what’s really happening beneath it. Or maybe you don’t feel that anything is broken or in need of fixing, but you are on the precipice of a new chapter and want a space to get guidance on how to embark on that together. Whatever the case, couples therapy can help you come out stronger than ever.
What if you could go from…
having the same exhausting argument on repeat → finally understanding what’s underneath it—and actually resolving it?
feeling lonely in your relationship →feeling emotionally connected and on the same team again?
walking on eggshells → speaking honestly without fear of it blowing up?
mistrust and hypervigilance after betrayal → rebuilding safety in a way that feels steady and real?
feeling like opponents → feeling like teammates?
one person carrying all the emotional weight → a more balanced, mutual relationship?
questioning whether the relationship can survive → having clarity about what’s possible—and what you both truly want?
loving each other but not liking how things feel → creating a relationship that actually feels supportive, intimate, and alive?
Couples Therapy with me
In my work with couples, we begin by slowing things down and helping each person get clear on what they truly want. Not every couple who comes to therapy is meant to stay together—and part of the work is creating enough safety and clarity to explore that honestly. If both partners want to remain in the relationship, we then look at the history of the relationship: what first brought you together, what worked, when things began to shift, and how certain patterns developed over time. Understanding where disconnection or conflict began often reduces blame and leads to meaningful repair. From there, we focus on rebuilding trust, strengthening communication, and building a relationship that feels more mutual, supportive, and safe.
So what now?
Step 1
We start by slowing down the fights and misunderstandings that keep repeating. Instead of focusing on who’s right, we look at what happens between you in the moment—so conversations feel less explosive and more workable.
Step 2
Then we gently explore how you first came together, what worked, and when things began to shift. Understanding how you both learned to protect yourselves helps reduce blame and opens space for empathy and repair.
Step 3
With more clarity, we practice new ways of talking, repairing after conflict, and expressing needs directly. Over time, the relationship begins to feel steadier, more mutual, and emotionally safe again.

Meet your Los Angels, CA Couples Therapist
I love working with couples because relationships are where our deepest patterns—and our deepest capacity for growth—show up. I’m warm, direct, and engaged in the room, helping you slow down the moments that usually escalate or shut down. My role isn’t to take sides or decide whether you should stay together. It’s to help you both get honest about what you want, understand the patterns shaping your dynamic, and create the conditions for meaningful change.
My background in depth-oriented therapy means we look beneath the surface of conflict—at attachment, protection, and the history of your relationship—while keeping the work practical and grounded in everyday life. Couples often tell me they appreciate that I’m real, thoughtful, and willing to name what’s happening in the room, while still keeping the space safe and respectful for both partners.
