Great to meet you!

My ideal client is a couple struggling with emotional and sexual disconnection. They feel distant, frustrated, and unable to communicate their needs. Using Emotionally Focused Therapy, you help them break negative patterns and rebuild emotional intimacy, which naturally enhances their sexual connection. Their goal is to feel again connected, understood, and valued by their partner. Through your guidance in EFT, mediation, and intimacy training, they rediscover the joy and closeness they once had.

My approach to therapy

I specialize in couples and sex therapy, using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help partners reconnect emotionally and physically. I also offer mediation to resolve conflicts collaboratively. My approach provides a safe space to improve communication, rebuild intimacy, and foster more profound, fulfilling relationships.

What you can expect from me

I understand how hard it can be to feel disconnected from your partner. Navigating relationship challenges alone is not easy, but with support, healing is possible. Together, we can work toward rebuilding trust, intimacy, and understanding. If you’re ready to take the first step, I’m here to help guide you.
