The quality of your relationships determines the quality of your life.
The instinct to create a loving, passionate relationship comes naturally, and the ability to do so requires healing, learning, and growth.
Because most of us were never taught how to build and sustain thriving romantic partnerships, it’s no surprise that confusion, conflict, disappointment, distance, loneliness, and heartache are all too common.
The good news is that love can be learned. More than forty years of relationship research have revealed the core skills that build lasting trust, intimacy, connection, and passion. This research-based foundation is at the heart of my approach to couples therapy.

I practice on the traditional, unceded lands of the Lenape (Brooklyn, NY) and the Chochenyo Ohlone (Berkeley, CA) peoples. I honor the enduring presence and wisdom of Indigenous communities—past, present, and future—and acknowledge that these lands were taken through colonization and genocide.
As a therapist committed to healing and liberation, I recognize that my work exists within systems shaped by white supremacy, settler colonialism, slavery, war, displacement, and racial violence. I stand in solidarity with Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian, Middle Eastern, Jewish, immigrant, and all culturally marginalized communities impacted by these legacies.
Personal and collective healing are inseparable. Naming these truths is one way I honor our interdependence and the histories that shape us. May this acknowledgment move us toward deeper responsibility, repair, and relationship—with land, ancestors, and one another. May we reclaim our interconnectedness and create a more just and beautiful world together.
Couples therapy can change everything.
