Rediscover, Repair,
& Reimagine
Your Relationship
Couples Therapy in Newport Beach & Telehealth Across CA
Many couples come to therapy feeling disconnected, stuck in the same frustrating patterns, or unsure how to communicate in a way that truly lands.
Together, we work to rebuild connection, deepen understanding, and create a stronger sense of "Us."
Whether you're navigating repair after infidelity, individual growth, life transitions, or the everyday stressors that can pull partners apart, therapy offers a space to slow down, reconnect, and strengthen your relationship—even during difficult seasons.
Creating a Stronger Sense of “Us”
Every relationship goes through seasons of growth, challenge, and change. Therapy offers an opportunity to slow down, gain a deeper understanding of one another, and create a stronger, more connected path forward together.
I provide couples therapy in Newport Beach and throughout Orange County, including Costa Mesa, as well as online across California. Together, we work to improve communication, rebuild trust, strengthen emotional connection, and navigate life's transitions as a team.
If you're preparing for marriage or engagement, I also offer premarital counseling in Newport Beach to help couples build a strong foundation for the future.

Are you stuck in the same loop?
You’ve tried to talk things through, but it feels like you’re having the same argument on repeat. Maybe one of you shuts down, the other pushes harder. Maybe you both go at it, determined to be heard and “win.” Or maybe, you both retreat and avoid it all together.
Whatever way it looks, you both end up feeling misunderstood and alone — even while sitting right next to each other.
My couples therapy sessions in Newport Beach (and online across California) offer a place to slow the cycle down and look beneath the surface. Together, we’ll uncover what these patterns are trying to protect, what values they speak to, and how to reconnect with curiosity and empathy instead of defensiveness.
My Philosophy
As a couple, life can take you in different directions of growth. Yet even when your branches have stretched apart, the roots that connect you often remain strong and alive. Couples therapy can help you rediscover that foundation, strengthen your connection, and learn how to grow side by side again—in ways that honor who you have each become.
How I Work with Couples
Narrative Perspective
We explore the stories shaping your interactions and keeping you stuck, then work together to create new narratives that invite greater understanding, hope, compassion, and connection.
Team Focus
You'll learn practical tools to communicate more effectively, repair after conflict, and approach life's challenges as a team rather than as opponents.
Solution-Focused
While understanding the past can be helpful, many couples are looking for practical ways to create change now. Together, we'll identify what's working, build on your strengths, and develop concrete strategies to help you move forward with greater clarity and confidence.
Deeper Insight & Understanding
We'll uncover the deeper emotions, needs, and vulnerabilities beneath anger, frustration, and disconnection so that meaningful change can take root and last beyond the next disagreement.
