Relationship Therapy
I work with couples and families who are facing the following challenges:
Cross-cultural issues - I love working with interracial and cross-cultural couples and exploring how differences in cultural and social identities impact, enrich, and challenge growth in partnerships.
Differences in values or beliefs - A lasting, healthy relationship must have the capacity to hold and tend to the needs of each person.
Communication - How do you have challenging conversations? Are you able to express your needs and boundaries? How do you know when you are truly heard and understood by your partner(s)?
Desire for more intimacy - We will explore how to meet each persons’ needs and desires or emotional and physical intimacy.
Navigating a shared life together - How do you navigate difficult life decisions together or co-exist in a mutually-fulfilling way? This can be a space to explore questions like whether to have children, how to co-parent, if you want to explore non-monogamy, whether to stay together or separate, etc.
Non-monogamy - Are you exploring non-traditional relationships or currently navigating one? Working with ruptures, communication, jealousy, different and changing needs, boundaries, and expectations can be challenging. I offer a dedicated space to address these complexities with care.
Together, we can explore the changing landscapes of your relationship and cultivate more spaciousness, intimacy, and trust.
