Helping couples create secure, lasting bonds through Emotionally Focused Therapy

Our Approach to Couples Therapy

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Associate (LMFT-A), I specialize in using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help couples understand and transform their relationship patterns.

EFT helps couples:

  • Identify and understand negative interaction cycles
  • Access and express deeper emotions safely
  • Create stronger emotional bonds
  • Develop secure attachment patterns
  • Build lasting trust and intimacy
Building trust through emotional connection
"The most functional way to regulate difficult emotions in love relationships is to share them."

EFT helps couples understand that emotions are not the problem—they're actually the key to creating deeper connection and intimacy.
