Couples Therapy

Locations Served: Elm Grove | Brookfield | Wauwatosa | Waukesha (in‑person & online)

Relationships bring joy, but also complexity, conflict, and sometimes pain. If you’re yearning to deepen your connection with your partner, resolve recurring conflicts, or heal relational wounds (including from trauma), couples therapy is a path toward renewed trust, safety, and connection. For over 20 years I’ve worked with couples helping them reconnect in ways that matter. I believe that relational healing begins with creating safety, understanding internal experience, and accessing what’s already inside both partners to restore connection.

What To Expect

  • Early sessions focus on understanding your story, relational history, strengths, and challenges. We’ll jointly map goals and identify patterns to shift

  • A safe, guided space for both partners to be heard, understood, and held

  • Compassionate, attuned guidance to unpack what's beneath patterns of frustration or conflict

  • Use of modalities like Emotionally Focused Therapy, attachment‑based work, experiential and somatic approaches and EMDR when appropriate

  • Practical tools to restore trust, repair ruptures and foster deeper emotional attunement

  • Move at a pace that feels safe and meaningful, integrating tools and insight with everyday relational habits.

What We Address

  • Repeated cycles of conflict, miscommunication, or misunderstanding

  • Emotional disconnection, distance, or drift

  • Wounds from past betrayals or infidelity

  • Trauma’s impact on intimacy, safety, and trust

  • Premarital questions and preparing for deeper partnership

  • Parenting challenges, differences in values, role conflicts

  • Navigating life transitions (e.g. loss, career change, health shifts) together

  • Anxiety or emotional regulation issues showing up in your relationship
