Couples Therapy
Relationships naturally face challenges, and even the most committed partners can become overwhelmed by stress, communication struggles, or emotional disconnection. Couples Therapy provides a warm, supportive, and confidential space where you and your partner can openly discuss the issues that are creating distance. Whether you’re dealing with recurring arguments, fading intimacy, unresolved hurt, or difficult transitions such as parenting, relocation, or infidelity, therapy offers structured guidance to help you rebuild trust and strengthen your bond.
My approach is not about assigning blame or choosing sides—it’s about creating understanding. As we work together, we’ll uncover unhelpful relational patterns, explore the emotional triggers underneath them, and develop healthier ways to communicate your needs. Many partners begin therapy feeling stuck or unsure whether their relationship can recover. With openness and consistent effort, couples often rediscover emotional closeness and a sense of partnership they thought was lost.
This work is especially supportive for couples navigating trauma therapy for relationship patterns, including the impact of unresolved childhood wounds or past relational injuries. As a Washington telehealth therapist, I also provide support for partners seeking flexible, accessible care from the comfort of their home.
Whether you’re dating, engaged, married, or working to repair the relationship after a separation, therapy offers a proactive path toward stability, healing, and deeper emotional connection. It’s an investment in your shared well-being, helping each of you grow both individually and together.
If you’re ready to strengthen your connection, resolve lingering hurts, and renew joy within your relationship, Couples Therapy can be a meaningful first step toward lasting change.
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a highly effective, evidence-based therapy that supports people in healing from trauma, overwhelming life events, and deeply rooted emotional distress. Many individuals have heard of EMDR but aren’t sure how it works or why it’s so different from traditional talk therapy. At its foundation, EMDR helps the brain reprocess painful memories that remain “stuck,” allowing emotional healing to unfold in a natural and lasting way.
Unlike regular talk therapy, EMDR doesn’t rely heavily on verbal analysis. Instead, it engages the brain’s built-in healing system through bilateral stimulation—such as eye movements, alternating sounds, or gentle tapping. This process reduces the emotional intensity of distressing memories and helps you feel more grounded and in control. Over time, the grip of these memories softens, making room for a calmer and more balanced emotional state.
This approach is widely used for trauma and PTSD therapy Washington, and is also effective for anxiety, depression, phobias, low self-worth, and performance-related stress. Many clients report noticeable relief after just a few sessions, often describing a renewed sense of clarity, peace, and emotional stability. EMDR is also highly supportive for those navigating EMDR for childhood trauma, helping individuals release long-held emotional wounds.
If you are seeking a therapist who offers specialized trauma work, you may benefit from the support of a Seattle EMDR therapist or Spokane EMDR therapist, depending on your location. EMDR can also be provided through a Washington telehealth therapist, offering flexible access to trauma-focused care from the comfort of your home.
EMDR allows you to move through the past without needing to relive every detail of your traumatic experiences. Instead, you work gently and safely with your therapist at a pace that honors your emotional readiness. Over time, EMDR helps you regain a sense of safety, confidence, and internal stability.
If you’re ready to let go of what has been holding you back and experience deep emotional healing, EMDR Therapy can be a transformative step forward
