Therapy for
Couples & Polycules

Strengthen your connection. Navigate conflict. Rekindle trust.

Relationships can be one of life’s most meaningful sources of support—and also one of the most challenging. Whether you’re feeling distant, stuck in conflict, or overwhelmed by a major life transition, couples therapy offers a space to slow down, reconnect, and move forward together.

I work with couples of all kinds—newly partnered or decades in, monogamous or polyamorous, straight or queer—who want to deepen their emotional bond, communicate more clearly, and build resilience in their relationship.

Available in person in San Francisco or online throughout California. 50 and 75 minute sessions available.

Why Couples Choose Therapy

Whether you're navigating everyday stress or a major rupture, couples therapy can help you:

  • Break out of recurring arguments or cycles of disconnection

  • Rebuild trust after a betrayal

  • Feel more seen, heard, and emotionally safe

  • Work through challenges around sex, intimacy, or desire

  • Navigate parenting, aging, illness, or life transitions

  • Strengthen connection, even when things aren’t “bad”

A Relational Approach That Meets You Where You Are

I employ a combination of approaches with most emphasis on Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), a research-supported model that helps couples shift out of reactivity and into connection. We'll explore the deeper emotions and unmet needs driving your conflicts and help you create new, more secure patterns of relating.

I also bring a trauma-informed, culturally sensitive lens to our work—considering how histories of attachment, power, and identity shape how you show up in relationship.

Queer, Polyamorous, and Intergenerational Relationships

In addition to working with a broad range of couples, I have a special focus on:

Queer Couple Therapy in the Bay Area

I work with LGBTQIA2S+ couples across genders and sexualities—including trans, nonbinary, and gender-diverse folks. You deserve a therapist who understands the dynamics of queer love and can support you in navigating both internal dynamics and the external pressures that impact your relationship.

Polyamorous Relationships and Polycules

I support polyamorous couples and polycules in navigating boundaries, communication, jealousy, and shared agreements—without pathologizing your relationship structure. Whether you’re new to non-monogamy or years in, therapy can offer clarity, support, and tools for healthy connection.

Intergenerational Gay Couples

Age gaps in gay relationships can be beautiful and often bring both connection and complexity. One partner may have lived through very different cultural and coming-out experiences than the other, shaping how you each relate to identity, intimacy, and communication.

Therapy offers a space to navigate those differences with care—honoring your histories, bridging generational gaps, and strengthening your connection.
