Couples Counseling in Somerville, MA
Available Online Throughout MA and ME
Therapy for Couples
I support couples through all phases of their relationships – the “what now?” The “where to?” The “is this it?” Whether you and partner are at a crossroads, at different points of self exploration or identity questioning (Am I bi? What’s the deal with ENM? I’m not sure about my gender identity.), we can get you talking, sharing, supporting, and exploring. Together.
You might be finding that you and your partner are having fights about “stupid” things – the coffee isn’t strong enough, you didn’t help with the dishes, you folded my shirt wrong. When that happens, it’s almost always about something deeper and usually has roots in things like feeling unheard, unsupported, and unappreciated. It might be about you knowing deep down that you need or want something more or different, but you’re scared of what that means.
Let’s Help You Feel Heard and Validated
Whether you’re preparing for a major transition or want to improve your communication and collaboration, I’m here to help you explore, dig deeper, increase vulnerability, and improve communication so that all needs are more fully understood.
Together, we’ll identify what you want out of your relationship and how to get there.
How Couples Therapy Works
Once you submit an inquiry, I’ll respond with some general information and will ask for some broad information about the type of challenges you’re looking for support with. If I feel like a good fit for your needs, we’ll then work on finding a time to meet all together. After that initial meeting, if we want to move forward, I’ll schedule a one-time one-on-one with each of you to give you space to freely talk about your experiences, perceptions, hopes, and goals. After that and going forward, we’ll meet all together again. If at any time in the process you or I feel a different provider may be a better fit, I will absolutely help you find referrals for someone new. The absolute most important thing to me is that you receive the support your need and deserve.
