Why does the very thing I was drawn to about this person drive me crazy? How do I keep a sense of my own integrity and indepedence while leaning into relationship? How do we communicate authentically so that we are both heard? Where should my partner reassure me and what is mine to self soothe? How do we change and stay connected? Should we stay together?

Beginning a relationship is so exciting and intuitive at first, and then really big questions start to arise. Couples therapy takes a great deal of courage, and I am always so honored to be alongside my clients as we navigate and transform, deepen our sense of selves, drop vigilance, and open to what is, for more authentic, spacious intimacy, communication, problem-solving, and connection.
