Boston Marital Therapy

Couples often seek marital therapy when they find themselves stuck in patterns of conflict, disconnection, or misunderstanding that they can’t resolve on their own. Common concerns include communication difficulties, recurring arguments, emotional distance, stress related to life transitions, or a betrayal or rupture in trust. Some couples come to do preventative work or work on long standing issues, often couples come to therapy during periods of high stress—such as parenting challenges, cultural or family events that led to big fights, after an affair is discovered, or shifting roles and expectations.

Even if couples do extensive amounts of reading, podcast listening, personal therapy, and try to change the relationship on their own, they may still struggle to make meaningful shifts due to how incredibly difficult it is to change long standing patterns and triggers. In the context of the therapeutic space, as a well trained couples therapist, I am able to attune to both partners, understand and quickly assess the dynamics at play, and guide couples to regulate their reactions and respond differently to one another in real time.
