Couples therapy at Two Minds delves beneath the surface of problems to explore the dynamics at play in your partnership. My approach of working psychoanalytically with couples aims to determine how each partner contributes separately and together to the couple’s dynamic, and how we can work together to uncover the roots of your relationship patterns, enhance communication, and foster deeper intimacy and understanding. 

The Therapeutic Process

You and your partner are invited to explore your individual histories, emotional experiences, and relational patterns within the safety and support of the therapeutic relationship. Through open dialogue, reflection, and interpretation, you gain insight into the underlying dynamics driving your conflicts and learn new ways of relating to your partner with empathy, understanding, and compassion.

Psychotherapy with Couples

Navigating Conflicts and Repairing Ruptures

The goal of a healthy relationship is not to have no conflict but to fight better. Couples therapy allows you to talk through and resolve your differences. I will help you communicate more effectively, identify underlying needs and desires, and find mutually satisfying resolutions to your conflicts.

Long-term relationships often carry many baggage. By exploring past hurts, misunderstandings, and betrayals with empathy and compassion, we create space for forgiveness, reconciliation, and renewed trust.
