For couples going through a hard time

I offer my couples therapeutic sessions to couples who are having some difficulties, want to work through some conflicts and reconnect emotionally. These couples might want to come to therapy on a weekly or bi-weekly basis in a more intense manner. Some couples need urgent support in a crisis situation (discovery of adultery, an emotional wound that has accidentally happened, a breaking point has been reached) or are having repeated fights that are hard to work through, or persistent difficulties with intimacy. I want to help you understand those difficulties, overcome challenges, deescalate, learn to repair, reconnect in the safest environment, find that safe emotional bond between the two of you, learn to nourish and deepen this bond. Helping you with an attachment-oriented, bond-focused, and emotionally attuned way.

For couples who want to deepen or strengthen their connection

Couples therapeutic sessions are also helpful for couples who simply want to deepen their emotional connection without a major problems or a crisis - simply as a measure of prevention or deepening of their bond, or to prepare for a big life event such as marriage, having a child, or exploring their sexuality. Some couples want to take the next step, nurture their relationship in the healthiest way possible or simply want to make the most out of their emotional connection after having been married for a long time - you can come to therapy on a weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, even yearly basis, or as needed in order to provide your relationship with the best chance to develop in a deep and safely connected way. I will make your emotional patterns obvious to you, help you connect over things that you might have not seen yourself, help you deepen your connection and make it more secure. Take risks in a safe way and nourish your emotional bond, learn to dance even better with one another emotionally.

Inclusive Couples Therapy

I work with a wide range of couples — including heterosexual and queer couples, monogamous and polyamorous partnerships, open relationships, intercultural and multilingual couples, and more. All relationship structures and identities are welcome.

How do I get started with couples therapy?

Write an initial email to me: eft.couple.therapist@gmail.com. Feel free to tell me what your needs and worries are, and when your preferred times for a first session would be.

My preference is to provide a first session, as full and complete as possible, to dive straight into supporting you as best I can. I take my time, we plan 90 minutes. I try to give couples an experience of what emotionally focused couples therapy might feel like, try to provide you with something that might already help, as much as possible. Afterwards, I want to offer you a free organisational consultation of around 30 minutes where we can discuss needs, plans, thoughts, questions.

Most couples decide on having an initial intensive phase of weekly or bi-weekly sessions in order to either deescalate and/or deepen their emotional connection. Some couples then reduce the frequency of sessions or graduate their couple therapeutic process. Some couples only do one or a few sessions. I offer yearly ''upkeep sessions'' for couples I have had intensive therapies with and also prioritise ''old'' couples who want to refresh things (for instance when they enter a new phase of life such as deciding to have children). 

Some couples come for advice, or for separation processes. I adjust to the need of the couple in front of me.
