Couples & Marriage Counseling in Monrovia, CA

Personalized therapy for couples to support you and your partner’s needs while deepening connection.

It all began with a story. Maybe you met at school and felt a spark in history class. Maybe you met at work or online. Or maybe someone introduced you guys. Whatever it is, you find yourself arguing more and more every day. You can’t remember the last time you laughed together and you lay in bed wondering at night, “What happened to us?” or “I don’t know how much longer I can do this.”

Truth is, relationships are hard and every relationship hits rough patches—whether it’s constant arguments, feeling disconnected, or the same issues resurfacing again and again. seeking support with couples therapy can be helpful in rebuilding the connection that you lost along the way.

Here are some common concerns I address in couples therapy:

  • Negative Communication

  • Infidelity and Betrayal Issues

  • Adjusting to Parenthood and Children

  • Pre-Marital Therapy

  • “Roommate Syndrome”

  • Unmet Emotional Needs

  • In-Laws and Family Issues

  • Mismatched Parenting Styles

  • Blended Family

  • Intimacy Issues

  • Boundaries

  • Financial Issues

  • Life Transitions: Career, Kids, Empty Nest, Grief/Loss

What does Couples Therapy look like?

In couples therapy, you’ll have the opportunity to express your thoughts and feelings in a safe and non-judgmental space with your partner. I will take the time during our first session to really understand your love story and the history of your relationship. As a team, we will set goals for your relationship together and come up with a specific plan to help heal from any past hurt and reignite that spark again. If you’re looking for a therapist to agree with you and make you “right,” then I’m not the therapist for you. But, if you’re willing to do some work on yourself for the betterment of your relationship and truly want to have a happy partnership, then let’s focus on today together so that we can start creating the love story of your dreams.
