“To be fully seen by somebody, then, and be loved anyhow — this is a human offering that can border on miraculous.”
— Elizabeth Gilbert


Do you feel stuck in your current relationship or that you are both functioning on autopilot? Recently, has it felt easier to just isolate yourself, either physically or emotionally, instead of being vulnerable and sharing who you really are?

Whether you are trying to decide if you want to stay in a committed relationship, are adjusting to life with young children or you are empty nesters, big life changes as a couple can be challenging. My passion is understanding how early life attachments and childhood trauma impact present relationships and communication. Childhood trauma in your growing up years complicates communication and relationship dynamics in adulthood. This is especially true with addictions, mental illness, and abuse. Even adults who appear resilient, and high functioning may struggle to have healthy connections and communication in their relationships.  Couples committed to exploring how their past is influencing the present and bravely finding more meaning, reach out so we can find a time to meet. 

You feel you cannot trust your partner but are not sure why. It might be that your emotional needs are not being met but you do not know how to communicate without another argument. Let’s work together to find ways to express those needs and stay emotionally regulated in the process. It will take work to look at old attachment wounds and heal dysfunctional patterns, and you are worth it. The future of your relationship is worth it.

Couples committed to looking at attachment styles, exploring how their past is getting in the way, and want to experience deeper connection-please, reach out today so I can support you growing together.

Know that even if you are feeling isolated or undervalued in your current relationship it doesn’t have to stay that way.
