Relationship work, that works!

Let me help you/y’all feel better about walking down the aisle or reminiscing about that day

Maybe you and your spouse, your long-distance love, your fiance, or your multiple partners find yourselves clashing over household responsibilities, navigating family expectations, or feeling unexpectedly disconnected as you talk about parenting, finances, or the future. These are the moments that can quietly erode closeness—or become opportunities for deeper connection.

When feelings of being misunderstood, disrespected, or disconnected start to surface, it’s easy to worry that the spark is gone. I specialize in helping partners slow down and practice reflective communication about the things that often get overlooked—values, roles, long-term vision, and what shared commitment looks like for your unique relationship—so you can build lasting alignment, whether you're just starting out or circling back to strengthen your foundation.

Whether you've been together for years, share a home, or function as a deeply connected chosen family, it's never too late to strengthen the foundations your relationship skipped in the beginning—especially when love, chemistry, or shared purpose made things feel easy at first.

Worried the spark is fading?
You’re not alone—and it doesn’t mean something’s broken. Disconnection is often a sign it’s time to slow down, feel heard, and get curious together again. I’m here to help you rebuild connection where it matters most.
