COUPLES COUNSELING

best relationship therapist austin, tx

Our relationships are opportunities for growth and healing.

Humans are wired for connection, but most of us weren’t shown how to connect with others in a healthy way. We repeat the same patterns from one partner to the next and end up feeling frustrated, resentful, and stuck in our relationships.

Couples counseling can help.

It offers a unique and powerful opportunity for both personal growth and lasting relationship transformation.

When you and your partner learn the skills to navigate the normal cycles of harmony, conflict, and repair in your relationship, you not only deepen the relationship you have with your partner – but the one you have with yourself.

Our work together will help you achieve a deeper understanding of yourself and your partner, develop more empathy, recognize and change unhealthy patterns, increase self-esteem, deepen intimacy, and make the health of your relationship a priority in your life. 

To work with couples, specialized training is vital. I study extensively with Terry Real, renowned therapist, author, and creator of Relational Life Therapy. I have also trained with leading relationship experts Stan Tatkin, founder of PACT, and Esther Perel.

I want you to feel better about your relationship, so I use the latest approaches to help couples achieve quicker and longer-lasting results than more traditional methods.

At this time, I work exclusively with couples who are ready to make an investment in the health of their relationship. We will begin with weekly sessions, and I recommend longer intensives for all couples eager to see faster results.

If this sounds like you, let’s find out if we’re a fit.


WHAT TO EXPECT

Couples therapy with me is direct, honest, and hands-on. It pushes you, even shakes things up, but it’s always grounded in compassion and a good sense of humor.

It’s not old-school talk therapy.
My approach is based on Relational Life Therapy, a cutting-edge model developed by relationship expert Terry Real.

You’ll break old patterns and practice healthier ways of relating in real-time, resulting in a faster resolution of issues and more lasting change than you would just talking about your problems.

What couples tend to experience over time is deeper understanding and empathy, as well as more ease, intimacy, and trust.
