Attachment-Based Therapy for

Individuals and Couples

For thoughtful, high-functioning adults and couples who feel stuck in painful patterns and want something more secure, more honest, and more emotionally alive.

If you’re here, something isn’t working and you’re tired of it.

Maybe you’ve tried to talk about it.

Maybe you’ve read the books, had the insights, or gone in circles before.

And still, when it matters most, the same patterns show up.

You don’t have to have everything figured out to begin.

You might be here because…

• You love your partner, but you can’t seem to reach each other
• You keep having the same conflict, no matter what the topic is
• You’re the one everyone relies on, but you feel alone underneath it
• You understand your patterns intellectually, but in real moments they still take over
• You feel stuck between “I love them” and “I don’t know if I can keep doing this”
• You’re tired of holding it all together and want something deeper and more real

Most people who come here are not lacking insight.

They’re stuck in emotional and relational patterns that take over when something important is at stake.

What looks like conflict, shutdown, or distance is often protection; protection around something more vulnerable, more human, and more important.

When those patterns are slowed down and understood, something new becomes possible.

My Approach

My work is grounded in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and attachment science.

This is not just about talking through problems or learning communication techniques.

We will slow things down in real time so you can begin to notice what is happening inside you, in your body, and in your relationships.

You’ll start to:

• identify the deeper emotions underneath your reactions
• understand the patterns that keep repeating
• express what you actually need in a way that creates connection instead of distance

I will guide you through this process carefully and directly and I won’t leave you alone in the hard parts.

Ways to Work Together

There are several ways we can work together, depending on what you’re needing right now.

Couples Therapy

For couples who love each other, but feel stuck in painful cycles of conflict, distance, or disconnection and want to find their way back to each other.

Individual Therapy

For thoughtful, high-functioning adults who are tired of over-functioning, self-abandoning, or feeling alone inside and want a more secure relationship with themselves and others.

Intensive Therapy

Extended sessions designed to help couples or individuals move through stuck patterns more deeply and efficiently than traditional weekly therapy.

This work may be a good fit for you if:

• You’re willing to look honestly at yourself—not just your partner
• You want more than surface-level solutions
• You’re open to exploring your emotions, even if it feels unfamiliar
• You’re ready for something to shift

This may not be the right fit if:

• You’re looking for quick tips without deeper exploration
• You want someone to fix the other person
• There is ongoing violence, coercion, or untreated addiction
• You are in need of crisis or emergency services

Logistics

Sessions are held virtually through a secure telehealth platform.

I work with adults (18+) and couples located in Missouri.

I typically meet with clients weekly or biweekly to support consistency and momentum in the work.

Intensives are scheduled separately and may include extended or multi-hour sessions.

What Happens Next

Starting therapy can feel like a big step.

Here’s what it looks like:

1. You reach out through the contact form or scheduling link
2. We schedule an initial consultation or first session
3. We get a sense of what’s going on and what you’re needing
4. We decide together whether this feels like a good fit

You don’t have to know everything right now. You just have to begin.

If this feels like it might be a fit, the next step is to reach out.

You don’t have to keep doing this alone.
