Couples Therapy

What You Can Expect

If it feels like you and your partner are talking in circles, revisiting the same arguments, or stuck in patterns that never change, couples therapy can help. Using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), we focus on the emotions and unmet needs driving these cycles, rather than just the surface-level fights.

In our sessions, you’ll learn to:

  • Identify the hidden emotions and fears behind recurring conflicts

  • Understand the patterns that keep you stuck and how to interrupt them

  • Express your needs and vulnerabilities in ways your partner can hear

  • Respond to each other with empathy instead of defensiveness

  • Rebuild trust, emotional safety, and a stronger sense of connection

  • Move from frustration and disconnection to feeling heard, understood, and close again

EFT isn’t about “fixing” your partner or forcing a perfect relationship. It’s about giving your relationship a new language — one that helps you break cycles, deepen understanding, and create real, lasting change.
