Couples Counseling

Change patterns in your relationship that aren't working

This practice works with couples who are stuck in repeating conflict patterns — particularly where communication has broken down, resentments have built over time, and the same arguments keep cycling without resolution.

Couples counseling is cash pay: $200 for a 55-minute session. Insurance is not accepted for couples counseling.

How Sessions Work

Practicing a different way through it.

Sessions are active and experiential rather than traditional talk therapy based. Couples work on their feet using movement, role reversal, and enactment exercises drawn from psychodrama, Gestalt, and somatic approaches.

Who This Helps

This style tends to work well when

One partner shuts down

When one of you goes quiet or gets defensive in conversation, working on your feet moves things forward where talking stalls.

You're reactive but not connecting

When both partners are reactive with each other but not connecting underneath the conflict, experiential work helps bring new perspective and ways to connect.

The relationship has shifted

When you've been through a significant transition — recovery from addiction, a health change, or a major shift in relational dynamics.

The Goal

The goal is interrupt what is not working now and build something more workable going forward.
