It can feel extremely discouraging when you look at your partner and feel like the spark or flame that brought you together is now dwindling. We find ourselves in patterns that have become comfortable or too familiar and don't know how to break out of them. Often times we don't know where to begin when creating relationship goals and increasing the connection we once felt with one another. Our therapy space is one where curiosity and authenticity are inherently invited. Together, we make sense of all the moments, interactions, traumas, narratives, and experiences that shaped your relationship and find a new normal.

Are you a woman that is feeling frustrated that penetrative sex feels painful and less enjoyable than you thought it would be? Perhaps you are feeling frustrated by the consistent pattern of unfulfilling and frustrating relationship issues in your life and have wondered to yourself, ‘maybe I need to work on me’? Or maybe you are struggling to manage overwhelming feelings with pregnancy or navigating the minefields of pregnancy, prenatal, or postpartum? Either way, you're feeling disheartened that your life does not look like you imagined it would and you're looking for a change.

I’m here to listen to the story that you’ve written for yourself so far, and to help you write the next chapter. For us, the goal will be to help you find some much-needed balance in your life, despite all of the obstacles that may be slowing you down and forcing you to live outside of who you really want to be. It’s a fast-paced world out there, and I understand the types of demands that society has placed upon us. And often times, those demands can leave us feeling defeated, exhausted, frustrated, and unmotivated to be who we really want to be – and still, we’re forced to “keep it together.”

Relationship Issues Therapists
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
