Couple’s Therapy

Rebuild connection. Break the cycle. Love better.

The Way You’re Relating Isn’t Working.

If you feel like you're having the same argument over and over…
If you're walking on eggshells or keeping score…
If there's more distance than connection…
You're not alone — and you're not broken. But something has to change.

In couples therapy, I help you understand what's really happening beneath the surface of your dynamic — and how to shift it in a way that actually works.

My Approach: Relational Life Therapy (RLT)

Relational Life Therapy (developed by Terry Real) is direct, honest, and effective. I use Relational Life Therapy (RLT) because it works — especially for couples who are stuck in reactive patterns and want more than surface-level change.

RLT is a direct, truth-telling approach to couples therapy. It doesn’t sit on the sidelines. I may take sides in the moment — not to assign blame, but to help each partner see how they’re contributing to the cycle and what needs to shift. My goal isn’t to referee your fights. It’s to teach you both how to own your part, repair effectively, and relate from your best self — even when emotions run high.

This work is compassionate, but it’s not coddling. We’ll talk about the deeper beliefs driving your disconnection, and I’ll help you build the tools to speak with respect, listen with openness, and fight cleanly when conflict arises. RLT is about radical accountability and radical love — both are necessary for real change.

For Men Who Aren’t So Sure About Therapy

Couples therapy isn’t about sitting in a room and getting blamed. It’s about learning to show up — with clarity, with strength, and with real tools to improve your relationship.

It might be time if:

  • You feel like you can never do it “right” — no matter how hard you try

  • You shut down during conflict, or explode and regret it later

  • You're tired of being the problem, and ready to be part of the solution

  • You want peace, but you're not sure how to get there

  • You care deeply — even if you don't always know how to say it

Therapy isn’t about softening you. It’s about helping you be more powerful and more connected — without losing yourself in the process.

Frequently asked questions about couple’s therapy

  • Couples therapy is for you if…

    • You’re stuck in the same argument on repeat

    • You’re avoiding conflict to keep the peace — and losing connection in the process

    • You feel more like roommates or business partners than lovers

    • You're recovering from betrayal or broken trust

    • One of you wants more closeness, and the other feels shut down

    • You’ve tried talking — but it turns into blame, silence, or shutdown

    • You love each other, but something’s just not working

    Whether you're in crisis or quietly drifting apart, therapy can help you rebuild the relationship you want — with more clarity, connection, and honesty.

  • Sessions are active and engaged — not just listening and nodding. I’ll help you interrupt unhelpful patterns, name what’s really going on, and learn to communicate in ways that move the needle. I often meet with both of you together, and occasionally one-on-one as needed.

    You can expect to feel challenged — but also supported and seen.

  • That’s common. I welcome both skepticism and burnout. If you're motivated and your partner is willing to try, we can work with that. I aim to create a space that’s safe, structured, and not about blaming — it’s about building something better.

  • Yes — as long as both partners are emotionally and physically safe. RLT is particularly effective for high-conflict dynamics, as it gives you tools to de-escalate, repair, and reconnect without losing yourself in the process.

  • We can work toward clarity. Whether you’re trying to repair or decide whether to stay, therapy can help you show up more honestly, own your part, and move forward with integrity — together or apart.

  • Sessions are typically 50 minutes, once a week. Depending on what you're working through, we may meet more or less frequently over time.

  • Yes — I offer secure online sessions via SimplePractice for couples across Texas. Many couples find virtual therapy convenient, accessible, and just as effective as in-person work.

Couples therapy isn’t about who’s right.

It’s about what’s not working — and how we fix it, together.
