Therapy in West Palm Beach and Boca Raton, FL
Therapy for Couples Who Want to Stop Fighting and Start Reconnecting
You don’t want to give up. You just want the fighting, distance, and tension to stop.
Tired of Walking on Eggshells in Your Relationship?
Arguments circle back on repeat. Jealousy or mistrust lingers in the background. Even when you’re together, it feels more like roommates than partners. You love each other, but you’re tired of walking on eggshells and wondering if things will ever feel close again.
Couples therapy gives you the chance to slow things down, make sense of what’s really happening, and rebuild the safety and connection you’ve been missing.
The struggles couples bring to therapy
The same fights keep happening, and nothing ever feels resolved
Jealousy, resentment, or mistrust are making it hard to feel secure
Distance has replaced connection, and intimacy feels out of reach
One or both partners feel shut down, misunderstood, or unappreciated
If any of this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Many couples wait until the tension feels unbearable before reaching out. But healing doesn’t start with blame. It starts with understanding what’s underneath the conflict.
How Couples Therapy Can Help
-
Break the Cycle of Conflict
Learn how to step out of the same arguments that keep looping without resolution. Together, we’ll slow things down, recognize the patterns beneath the fights, and create space for calmer, more constructive conversations that actually move you forward.
-
Restore Trust and Emotional Safety
Whether it’s jealousy, resentment, or past hurts, couples therapy offers a safe place to address the breaches that have eroded trust. By working through these openly and with support, you can rebuild the sense of security, honesty, and openness that every relationship needs to thrive.
-
Reconnect as Partners, Not Roommates
When the spark fades, it’s often because partners get stuck in survival mode — running a household, managing stress, or simply coexisting. In therapy, you’ll learn how to be more emotionally present with one another, practice empathy, and share vulnerability so you can rediscover intimacy and closeness.
Why Work With Me

I am highly trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), one of the most research-backed approaches to couples counseling. EFT helps uncover the deeper emotions driving conflict so couples can move out of blame and into a place of understanding, empathy, and closeness.

If you’re ready to stop repeating the same fights, rebuild trust, and feel close again, couples therapy can help. It’s not about fixing one another. It’s about finding a way back to each other.
