When You’re Both Ready for Real Change
You’ve reached a crucial point in your relationship. Despite your love for each other, the same patterns keep emerging, leaving you feeling disconnected and frustrated. You’ve tried talking things through, reading relationship books, and maybe even previous therapy attempts that didn’t quite stick.
What makes the difference now is that you’re both ready – ready to examine your contributions to these patterns, ready to learn new skills, and ready to commit to the process of meaningful change.
Why Couples Like You Choose Gottman-Informed Therapy
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Gottman Therapist, I specialize in helping couples who are genuinely invested in transforming their relationship. My most successful clients share these qualities:
- Mutual commitment to the therapeutic process
- Self-awareness about their own contributions to relationship patterns
- Willingness to be vulnerable and examine difficult truths
- Desire for practical tools rather than just discussion
- Hope balanced with realism about the work ahead
The Relationship Challenges We Can Transform Together
I’ve helped couples navigate many complex relationship challenges, including:
- Communication breakdowns that leave you feeling misunderstood
- Trust rebuilding after betrayal or infidelity
- Emotional disconnection that’s developed over years
- Conflict patterns that escalate quickly and leave you both hurt
- Imbalanced relationship dynamics where one partner over-functions
- Trauma influences that create reactive patterns in your relationship
Why Traditional Therapy Often Falls Short
Most couples attempt the week-to-week therapy model, hoping for breakthroughs that will transform their relationship. But relationship patterns developed over years require more than scattered sessions.
Real transformation requires:
- Consistent practice of new communication skills
- Development of relationship habits that stick
- Processing through challenges rather than avoiding them
- Building a toolkit for navigating future difficulties
