What we treat

Relationship therapy, in the broadest sense.

We are not a practice built around one diagnosis or one narrow type of client. We pay attention to what keeps repeating in your life, what it costs you, and what kind of support will actually help it change.

How we work

The methods behind the work.

We are trained in a range of evidence-based approaches. Which ones we draw on depends on who we are working with and what they need, not on a house protocol.

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
Couples & individuals

EFT is the most research-supported couples therapy in the field. Built on attachment science, it helps partners see the emotional cycle underneath their conflict, the pattern of pursue-and-withdraw, or the way bids for connection get misread as attacks. For individuals, the EFIT adaptation uses the same lens to reshape how a person relates to themselves and to the people they're closest to. Our clinicians trained in EFT don't use it as a script. They use it as a way of tracking what's actually happening in the room.

Gottman Method
Couples

Built on four decades of research with thousands of couples, the Gottman Method gives us a clear map of what makes relationships stable and what predicts them coming apart. The 'Four Horsemen', contempt, criticism, defensiveness, stonewalling, are identifiable, and more importantly, reversible. Sessions are structured and skill-rich. You'll leave with tools you can actually use, not just insight about why things are hard.

Psychodynamic Therapy
Individuals & couples

Psychodynamic work operates on a simple premise: what you don't understand about your past, you repeat in your present. We pay attention to the patterns that keep showing up across relationships, the roles you fall into, the feelings you can't access, the defenses that once protected you and now keep you stuck. This isn't about spending years on a couch. It's about developing enough self-knowledge that you can actually make different choices.

Somatic Therapy
Individuals

Trauma and chronic stress live in the body before they live in words. Somatic approaches track the body's responses, breath, tension, posture, the micro-signals of a nervous system that learned to protect itself, and use that information to support healing at a level that talk alone often can't reach. This is integrated into sessions where it's relevant, not used as a standalone modality.

Parts Work (IFS-informed)
Individuals

Most people who feel internally conflicted ('part of me wants this, part of me is terrified') aren't broken. They have parts. Parts work helps you understand the different voices inside you, why they developed, and what they're protecting. When the inner critic softens and the scared part finally feels heard, the change is less about willpower and more about the whole system being able to relax.
