Relational Intelligence

Beyond conflict resolution. Building a partnership that thrives on depth, desire, and understanding.

Relationships are the crucible of our emotional lives. When they falter, everything feels off balance. My approach to couples therapy isn't about determining who is "right" or "wrong"—it's about understanding the complex dance between you.

The Science of Lasting Love

Drawing from the decades of research by Dr. John Gottman, we will work to build your "Sound Relationship House." We don't just talk; we build skills. You will learn to identify the "Four Horsemen" that predict divorce—Criticism, Contempt, Defensiveness, and Stonewalling—and replace them with antidotes that foster safety.

Navigating Desire & Autonomy

Love seeks closeness, but desire needs space. Inspired by Esther Perel, we will explore the paradox of intimacy. How do we maintain erotic vitality in a long-term partnership? We will create a safe space to discuss the unspoken—fantasies, fears, and the delicate balance between security and adventure.

What We Will Address

  • Breaking repetitive cycles of conflict.
  • Rebuilding trust after betrayal.
  • Navigating differences in sexual desire.
