I utilize relational gestalt and somatics in my work with couples and intimate partner relationships. Together we break down each person’s experience to understand where conflict, disconnection, and rupture can occur. We explore styles of attachment, love language, styles of communication, beliefs and ideas about relationships, and how our identities interact with all of these. We will practice skills for how to work with difference and conflict, increase safety for communication and focus on mutual values and goals. I am on my own journey to decolonize my offerings and welcome your own body wisdom, ancestors, and healing practices into our shared space.
I have completed training in PACT Level 2 (Psychobiological Approach to Couples Therapy) For more information on PACT go here.
While I work with all partnerships, I have a focus on Latine/x, LGBTQ+, BIPOC, and bi-racial/bi-cultural couples/partnerships.
Couples/Partners work is supervised by LMFT #85233.
