543298273Relationships are an essential part of our lives.

Yet, we’re frequently given very little support for navigating them.

Often, the model we received in our family growing up meant we inherited unhealthy patterns that we’ve carried into our present-day relationships.

Now, you’ve reached a point where you’re ready to unlearn the patterns that aren’t helpful and find new intentional ways of relating you can feel proud of.

But starting therapy is stressful.

Opening up to a stranger about what you’re going through can be difficult.

The idea of having to catch them up on your story feels overwhelming, and you’re not even sure where to start.

Hypotheticals run through your mind on repeat. “Will this person really be able to get how I’m feeling? What if they side with my partner or like them more than me?”

We make things as easy and welcoming as possible.

Experience what it’s like to be fully seen and understood by a professional who empathizes without choosing sides.

Through our work, you’ll learn to cultivate empathy for your partner and clarity about your situation.

The ideas we explore won’t always be fun or easy, but you’ll feel safe enough to process them in a way that deepens your understanding of yourself, your partner, and your relationship.

AnnabelleHow we work.

Think of us as your guide to the life you want. We’ll travel with you each step of your journey, navigating obstacles and ensuring you have the support you need.

We don’t endlessly rehash old arguments but rather help you open a dialogue where you can safely express the underlying fears, concerns, and thoughts you were previously afraid to say.

Soon, you’ll be able to catch familiar unhealthy patterns before they start, without blaming one another. It’s time for you both to take accountability and commit to a conscious, secure relationship.
