Relationships are hard. Not because you're doing something wrong, but because two people trying to stay close while also being fully themselves is one of the most complicated things humans attempt. That's the work I love most: helping couples figure out how to fight less destructively, feel more connected, and rebuild the kind of intimacy that made them want to be together in the first place. I'm a Licensed Clinical Marriage and Family Therapist, and most of my caseload is couples wrestling with communication breakdowns, trust issues, mismatched libidos, infidelity, or just that slow drift where two people start feeling more like roommates than partners. I lean heavily on the Gottman Method because it's research-backed and practical, not just theory, and I pair it with attachment-based work because so much of what shows up in a relationship in your 30s, 40s, or 60s actually started as a survival strategy in childhood.
