Pairs

Couples, Partners, Friends, Professional Collaborators, Parents and Children, Family Pairs

We sometimes find ourselves in repetitive patterns that create suffering. In pairs, we might have clarity around our own intentions but become reactive based on our partners’ impact. By creating a triangulated therapeutic space, I work with pairs to slow down, allow for difficult feelings to emerge, and bring acceptance instead of cycles of shame or blame. We work to hear our partners differently and trust ourselves more, thus creating a pathway for new, loving relational dynamics.

The therapeutic space acts as a kind of practice environment for relationships. I hold space and act as a mirror for you. It can be so hard to trust or connect after we have been hurt by others, or after we have been the ones doing the harm. Often, we develop coping patterns that may help initially, but stop working and leave us terrified. In my practice, we work together to find new coping skills that make change possible and exciting. I utilize a number of creative techniques, as well as mindfulness practices, to promote a sense of agency and connection.

families

Drama therapy techniques help us connect more deeply as a family. Psychodramatic techniques can allow us to step into another person’s experience, as a way to develop and promote empathy, hope, and forgiveness. I work with families of all shapes, combinations, and sizes to help provide a better understanding of the family system dynamics at play in order to create clear pathways of communication and healing.
