Couples Therapy in Boston & online

Relationships get messy. Most couples (and especially those with kids) face challenges at some point. Communication breakdowns, fading sexual connection, mismatched desire, and recurring conflicts can chip away at trust and connection, leaving both partners feeling unseen, frustrated, and alone

When Connection Breaks Down

It can feel like you’ve ended up on opposing teams. Maybe you’re stuck in the same argument again and again, or you’ve stopped talking altogether. Perhaps romance and intimacy feel like they’ve disappeared. For some, infidelity or broken trust makes moving forward feel impossible.

Couples counseling creates space to slow down, repair, and reconnect in ways that restore closeness.

Desire differences are inevitable—but disconnection doesn’t have to be

As a seasoned couples and sex therapist, I’ll say it directly: low desire is not a problem to “fix.”

When the low-desire partner is labeled as the problem, the real issue gets missed — the gap between desires.

Sex therapy and relationship counseling help you close that gap, reduce shame, and create connection that feels authentic, safe, and connected.

What to Expect in Couples Therapy

I know many partners feel nervous about starting counseling. You might worry about blame or doubt whether therapy really works. That’s normal. Here’s what you can count on:

  • I am always on the side of the relationship, not one partner over the other.

  • I use evidence-based, attachment-focused therapy like Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to rebuild trust and understanding.

  • You’ll learn practical communication tools to move out of negative cycles.

  • As an AASECT-certified sex therapist, I make space for even the most uncomfortable topics — nothing is off-limits.
