healing through conflict & rekindling connection
COUPLES & PARTNERS THERAPY IN SACRAMENTO
You can’t seem to remember the last time that you and your partner shared a moment of deep connection. Perhaps you’re still hurting over the long-ago rupture that you never really healed from. You know, the one that tends to come up by the end of every big argument. Every. Single. Time. Or maybe it’s your partner who’s hurting and you don’t know what else to do because no matter what you say, it never feels like enough.
You thought that things would get better with time. (Because, sometimes that’s all you need, right?) Yet, you’re looking back and realizing that ‘time’ has only opened the door for more arguments, more disconnection, more pain.
Relationships have a beautiful way of showcasing our greatest strengths - yet a funky way of illuminating our hidden pains. I support couples and partners (in all forms of relationship structures) in addressing unresolved tension and conflict, acquiring healthy communication skills, and reigniting their connection and intimacy.
vibrant relationships feel like a sanctuary, where you are safe to bring your vulnerability and are given ample love and care. a home that is equally for rest and for growth, free from judgment as you both seek to evolve. a union, void of control, but filled with mutual understanding.

*a note to those uncoupling
I’m all about supporting romantic partners move through their difficulties and deepen their together-ness. & I’m also aware that, sometimes, relationships end. Because they have to, because they want to. & I'm here to support those collectives too.
Because - despite popular belief - relationships do not need to come with toxic endings.
Because an ending can, in fact, involve lots of love, care, and tenderness. & it should. You, your partner, and your relationship deserve that. So, if you and your partner(s) are in this place and are seeking a space to navigate your journey of intentional uncoupling, I’m here for you, too.
