You know you love each other, but trying to navigate differences, conflict, or communication is starting to feel constant and tiring.

You dread the thought of having the same disagreement one more time. 

You want to talk about money, household responsibilities, intimacy, but every time you do, you both walk away feeling unheard.

You keep getting into conflicts with no resolve, leaving you resentful, and distant from each other.

Relationship standstills can look like:

Knowing that your way is the right way

Expecting your wants/needs to be met without voicing your wants/needs

Predicting each other’s responses

You want to feel safe, connected, and valued in your relationship.

Instead you feel like there is never a good time to discuss concerns, and wonder if your partner is still interested in you.

You are here to create a relationship that works for both of you.

Whether you are in a very new relationship, moving from the honeymoon phase to the nitty gritty stuff, or have been together for years, each relationship has its own unique set of challenges. We will identify the patterns that keep bringing you to these challenges, and cultivate tools and emotional intimacy to help you re-establish your connection. 

So what is emotional intimacy, anyway?

It can look like being able to:

  • Talk to your partner about something bothering you in your relationship

  • Put yourself in your partner’s shoes to understand how they are feeling

  • Feel safe sharing your stresses

  • Have lighter and deeper conversations

Together we’ll work to move From → To

  • Constantly reminding your partner of how they did things at the beginning of the relationship → You can see your partner for who they are today.

  • Feeling you have to defend your perspective to your partner → Have communication skills to share and receive each person’s wants/needs

  • Instead of fighting about adult responsibilities → Find balance in the give and receive in your relationship

  • Letting your frustrations build up inside → Create a dynamic where you make time to check in with each other about your relationship.
