Ready for Real Change?

Are you and your partner ready to take an honest look at what’s not working in your relationship, take ownership of your part, and begin building something better together? If so, couples counseling may be the right place to start.

I work with couples who are done with blame and defensiveness and ready for real change, where each takes responsibility for his or her part in the challenges they face. If you’re both willing to be self-aware, take accountability, and explore how you got to this place, Relational Life Therapy (RLT) can help you build a stronger, more connected relationship.

Couples who are a good fit for RLT:

  • Are willing to be honest with themselves and each other

  • Want to take personal responsibility, not just change their partner

  • Understand that growth takes effort and courage

  • Are open to direct, compassionate feedback

This work may not be a good fit if:

  • One or both partners are engaging in abusive or addictive behaviors

  • One or both partners are unwilling to reflect on their own patterns

  • You’re looking for “venting space” without taking action

  • You’re not yet committed to doing the work outside of sessions

In our work together, you can expect:

  • An honest and respectful look at the current dynamics in your relationship

  • Tools and practices to shift out of blame, withdrawal, or escalation

  • Help identifying and healing relational wounds

  • Clear action steps you can take between sessions

  • Support as you each take full ownership of your role in creating a healthier connection

My approach with couples

I bring a mix of compassion, clarity, and respect to every couple I work with. I won’t let you spin in circles—but I also won’t shame or blame. My goal is to help you see your relational patterns clearly, shift them with compassion, and create a partnership that feels healthy and connected.

How do we start?

If you and your partner are ready to move beyond the same old arguments and start building something better, I’d love to help. Contact me for a consultation to see if this work is a fit for you and your partner.
