COUPLES THERAPY IN SAN ANTONIO
Improve communication & restore intimacy.
You love each other, but things feel hard right now.
Every relationship encounters conflicts and disagreements. Couples therapy equips you with tools and techniques to navigate these conflicts constructively. Therapists can help you identify underlying issues, address them, and find compromises that work for both partners.
Even though you love each other, there may be aspects of your partner's thoughts, feelings, or past experiences that you don't fully understand. A therapist can facilitate conversations that promote deeper understanding and empathy, which can strengthen your emotional connection.
Couples therapy isn't just for couples in crisis; it can be a proactive and constructive step to enhance and strengthen a loving relationship. It provides guidance, tools, and a supportive environment to address issues, improve communication, and deepen your connection, ultimately leading to a healthier and more fulfilling partnership.
You’re tired of feeling caught in this cycle:
Misunderstandings and miscommunications
Emotional reactions
Defensive Responses
Escalation of Conflict
Withdrawal and Emotional Distance

Couples Therapy can Strengthen Your Bond and Rekindle Your Connection
In couples therapy, my primary goal is to create a safe and empathetic space where both partners can openly express themselves and work together to navigate the challenges they face. I facilitate productive communication, helping each partner feel heard and understood while guiding them towards more effective ways of expressing their needs and concerns.
By identifying and addressing underlying issues, patterns of behavior, and unmet emotional needs, I assist couples in developing healthier dynamics, resolving conflicts, and rebuilding trust.
My role is to provide support, offer practical tools and strategies, and empower the couple to strengthen their emotional connection, reignite intimacy, and move forward together on a path towards a happier and more fulfilling relationship.
WHAT SERVICES I PROVIDE:
Premarital Counseling
Premarital counseling is a proactive step that can help couples build a strong and resilient foundation for their marriage. It equips them with the skills and insights needed to communicate effectively, resolve conflicts, and maintain a loving and fulfilling partnership for the long term.
I am a certified Prepare and Enrich facilitator. Prepare and Enrich is a widely recognized and research-based premarital and couples counseling program designed to help couples explore and strengthen their relationships.
Marriage/Relationship Counseling
I provide marriage counseling services dedicated to fostering healthier and more fulfilling relationships. With a client-centered approach, I offer a safe and nonjudgmental space for couples to explore their challenges, strengthen communication, and develop effective conflict resolution strategies.

I use Gottman Method principles as well as a variety of other modalities and tailor them to your specific needs.
Sex Therapy
I am currently undergoing training with the Sexual Health Alliance to become a certified couples sex therapist.
A couples sex therapist is a specialized therapist who works with couples to address issues related to their sexual intimacy and relationship. The goal of sex therapy is to help couples cultivate a healthier, more satisfying, and more fulfilling sexual relationship within the context of a supportive and loving partnership.
