Couples Therapy can be an option for persons in a relationship that are interested in doing a deep work together around disconnection, anger issues or reactivity, disloyalty, sexuality, finances, parenting, and also alcohol or substance use - these conversations can be very complex and triggering sometimes, however, I am committed to helping you to share your needs and helping you to reconnect.
The meaning of Imago is “Image” in Latin; unconsciously, all of us hold a picture of what Love supposed to be, and we bring this expectations to our relationships, creating conflict, power struggle and ruptures. Imago Dialogue provides a structure for having safe conversations where real listening, validation and empathy is possible.
When working with Couples, my main objective it’s to help the persons in the relationship to really listen to each other, and to identify and regulate their emotions. In a safe environment, validation and empathy are possible and the partners can come to a better understanding of themselves and the other person. This can lead to agreements and better decisions, that can help to decrease the pain, and build a culture of appreciation where they both can heal and have a healthier relationship.
