Keeping the peace can come at a cost
Perhaps you agree before you know what you want, hold back something important, or feel guilty when another person is disappointed. Over time, it can become hard to tell where your wishes fit in the relationship.
Connection · Individual psychotherapy
Closeness with others.
A voice of your own.
You may want a satisfying relationship and still find it difficult to express a need, disagree, or let someone get close. We can explore what happens in those moments.
Understanding what happens between people
We can look at how you respond to conflict, distance, affection, and uncertainty. Earlier experiences may help us understand what you expect from others and how you try to protect yourself. We’ll also pay attention to the actual relationship you’re navigating today.
Choosing how you want to participate
Our conversations may involve dating, commitment, a marriage, family relationships, or friendships. We can think through a conversation you want to have, a boundary you’re considering, or what makes it difficult to remain open and honest with someone.
A few questions.
Is this couples therapy?
No. I offer individual therapy only. We can work on relationship concerns in your individual sessions, but I do not offer couples or family sessions.
Can I come if I’m single?
Yes. We can explore dating, patterns of attraction and distance, or what you want from a relationship. You don’t need to be partnered to work on connection.
A first conversation
Start with what matters to you.
I’m accepting new clients. A free 15-minute consultation gives us a chance to discuss what you’re looking for and whether we might be a good fit.
