Couple and individual therapy for conflict, disconnection, trauma, and lasting change
Specialized support for high-conflict relationships, emotional disconnection, and unresolved patterns—offered in-person in Georgetown, TX and virtually across Texas.
You may feel like you keep having the same argument—different words, same outcome.
One of you shuts down. The other pushes harder.
Or maybe you’ve stopped fighting altogether, and now it just feels distant.
If that’s where you are, you’re not alone—and you’re not stuck.
For many couples, disconnection also shows up in physical and sexual intimacy.
What once felt natural may now feel tense, distant, or confusing—and it can be hard to talk about without things shutting down or escalating.
Couples Therapy
-
Most couples don’t struggle because they don’t care.
They struggle because they’re caught in patterns, stuck in ways of communicating, reacting, and protecting themselves that create distance over time.These patterns don’t just affect communication, but also trust, emotional safety, and intimacy.
-
In our work together, we identify the patterns driving your conflict and disconnection—emotionally, relationally, and physically.
We create space to talk about the harder things, including intimacy and sex, in a way that feels safe, clear, and productive.
This is active, structured work—not just talking about problems, but learning how to respond differently in the moments that matter most.
-
As these patterns shift, communication becomes clearer, conflict becomes more manageable, and connection begins to return.
That includes:
emotional closeness
physical intimacy
and a relationship that actually feels good to be in again
This work is a good fit if:
You keep getting pulled into the same protest-withdraw cycle
Repair attempts fail or get missed entirely
Emotional or sexual disconnection has become painful or avoided
One or both of you want change, but do not know how to create it together
You are willing to look honestly at your own contribution to the pattern
I integrate evidence-based relational and sex-therapy-informed approaches, including the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy, to guide this work.
Individual Therapy
You may feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from yourself—and unsure how to move forward.
Maybe your thoughts feel constant, your emotions feel intense, or certain patterns keep repeating in your life or relationships.
-
Often, these experiences are not random.
They’re connected to how you’ve learned to cope, respond, and protect yourself over time. -
In therapy, we work to understand what’s underneath those patterns and how they show up in your present life.
This isn’t just insight. It’s about creating real shifts in how you think, feel, and respond.
-
As you gain clarity and develop new ways of relating to yourself and others, you begin to feel more grounded, more intentional, and more in control of your life.
This work is a good fit if:
You feel stuck in patterns you can name but cannot seem to change
You become overwhelmed, shut down, or reactive in close relationships
Past experiences still shape your body, emotions, or sense of safe
You want more than insight; you want real internal and relational change
My work draws from evidence-based and integrative approaches, including EMDR, Internal Family Systems, and somatic and relational frameworks.
What to Expect
Therapy is a collaborative process.
We begin by understanding what is bringing you in and identifying the patterns that are keeping you stuck. Whether that pattern shows up as conflict, emotional shutdown, anxiety, overwhelm, or relational disconnection, our first task is to make the cycle visible.
From there, we work to understand what is happening underneath it—how your nervous system responds under stress, how past experiences may still shape present reactions, and what keeps the same painful dynamic repeating.
This work is not only about insight. In session, we actively practice new ways of responding: slowing reactive cycles, building emotional regulation, strengthening communication, and creating new relational experiences that lead to lasting change.
Many clients come to me after trying therapy before. This process is often different because we are not only talking about patterns—we are working to change them in real time.
