Love in a relationship is a space for mutual growth, where both partners bring their own stories, wounds, and desires.
If you think the connection has weakened, conflicts keep recurring, or communication often leads to hurt, therapy can help you reconnect and heal together.
In our sessions, we explore relationship dynamics, learning to communicate honestly and tenderly, set loving boundaries, and express each other’s needs as part of daily mutual care.
Let's transform conflicts into opportunities for deep connection, each taking responsibility for their own well-being without expecting the other to complete or fix them.
My approach alternates individual and couples sessions, giving each partner space to explore their story, understand personal blocks, and return to the relationship with greater clarity and emotional responsibility.
A relationship grows and strengthens when both partners are at peace with their own history and come together from a place of choice, not need or dependency.

Approach
My approach integrates Nonviolent Communication (NVC) with a systemic perspective, fostering internal changes that transform your entire life system.

Helping couples create more fulfilling relationships
NVC - NONVIOLENT COMMUNICATION
DEVELOPED BY MARSHALL ROSENBERG
Conflict resolution
Instead of blaming, NVC allows people to express frustration clearly and respectfully, opening up a dialogue to find solutions.
What does it look like in practice? SCENARIO: One partner feels frustrated because the other doesn’t complete the agreed-upon household chores. Violent Communication: "You never do anything around the house. You’re lazy." Nonviolent Communication: "When I see that the house is messy (observation), I feel frustrated (feeling) because I need collaboration and order in our shared space (need). Could we talk about how to better distribute the chores?" (request/proposal)
Managing difficult emotions
NVC helps you express pain, anger, and other intense emotions without blame, opening up space for understanding and healing.
What does it look like in practice? SCENARIO: One partner feels hurt by a comment from the other. Violent Communication: "You've hurt me deeply. You're insensitive." Nonviolent Communication: "When you said that (observation), I felt hurt (feeling) because I need respect in our relationship (need). Could we talk about what happened?" (request/proposal)
Quality time together
Instead of criticizing, NVC allows you to express your need for connection clearly and respectfully, strengthening your connection to find solutions together.
What does it look like in practice? SCENARIO: One partner wishes to express their need to spend more quality time together. Violent Communication: "We never spend time together. You're always busy with other things." Nonviolent Communication: "I've noticed that our schedules have been very full lately (observation). I'm feeling a little lonely and disconnected (feeling) because I need to spend quality time with you to feel connected and nurtured in our relationship (need). I would really like it if we could plan one night a week to do something together, like have dinner or watch a movie (request/proposal). What do you think?"
If it’s time to transform your relationship, I invite you and your partner to a free discovery call to see how I can help you both find your way back home.
