Couples Therapy in New York

Creating stronger relationships through deeper understanding.

Transform Your Relationship

Whether you're dating, married, or navigating a transition, couples therapy provides a space to break free from recurring patterns and build a stronger partnership. Together, we'll explore not just visible challenges, but also the deeper patterns that shape your relationship, creating lasting positive change through greater awareness and understanding.

How Couples Therapy Can Help

Every relationship faces challenges. You might be:

→ Experiencing communication difficulties

→ Feeling stuck in recurring conflicts

→ Navigating trust or intimacy issues

→ Considering the next step in your relationship

→ Adjusting to major life changes

→ Working through parenting challenges

→ Feeling disconnected or distant

→ Noticing patterns from past relationships or family dynamics repeating themselves

→ Struggling to understand each other's emotional responses

My Approach to Couples Work

I believe that lasting change in relationships comes through understanding – both of ourselves and our partners.

Rather than just addressing surface conflicts, we'll explore the deeper meanings and patterns that shape your relationship dynamic.

I create a space where both partners can:

→ Feel heard and understood

→ Explore patterns with curiosity rather than judgment

→ Understand how early experiences and unconscious patterns influence your relationship

→ Understand how past experiences influence current dynamics

→ Develop new ways of communicating and connecting

→ Build on existing strengths while addressing challenges

→ Gaining more control through awareness

What to Expect

Our work together begins with understanding your unique relationship dynamics and goals.

Using a blend of psychodynamic understanding and practical tools, you'll:

→ Gain insight into recurring patterns

→ Develop more effective communication tools

→ Build stronger emotional connections

→ Learn to navigate differences constructively

→ Create positive changes that last

→ Understand how your individual histories influence your relationship

→ Develop greater awareness of unconscious patterns that affect your dynamic
