Do I know you?
Where did this go wrong? This person was the love of your life! You could not keep your hands off each other! Now you are like roommates or siblings. The thought of being intimate makes you cringe, and the words, "I'm so tired, I haven't showered, I have a presentation due in the morning," are a constant way to avoid any physical touch.
Now the kids are on their way out the door, and the placating thought of how well you ran the business of your domestic life together is no longer cutting it. Who are you now as a couple, and how do you want to live the rest of your life together? Are you still on the road toward the shared dream, or has the path diverged somewhere along the way? Together we can figure out what you want as a couple again. To regain the intimacy, pleasure, and passion that was once taken for granted. You deserve this! Let's figure out how to get back there again.
The Work
Every romantic partnership is different. No one can truly know what goes on inside of yours. This work is fine-tuned to that truth. Through the evidence-based modalities of Emotionally Focused Therapy, we look at how your individual attachment styles affect your connection. Through the Gottman Technique, we can learn how to turn toward each other instead of away from each other. Through Relational Life Therapy, you learn how to form a deeper connection in all layers of intimacy: romantic, sexual, intellectual, and existential. Through Sensate Focused Therapy, there is a road map to rebuild that physical connection that may have been lost because of complacency, boredom, illness, or betrayal.
