Couples Therapy Scottsdale

Are you and your partner stuck in the same arguments, feeling disconnected, or struggling to repair trust?
Couples often wait too long to seek help—but change is possible.

Therapy for Couples

What’s Going Wrong

You may notice:

  • Repeated arguments that never get resolved
  • One partner pursuing while the other withdraws
  • Escalation into criticism, defensiveness, or shutdown
  • Lingering resentment or emotional distance

How I Work

My approach is grounded in the Gottman Method (developed by John Gottman), combined with practical skills from DBT and insights from CBT and systemic family therapy.

Gottman-Based Work

  • Identify your specific negative cycle(s)
  • Reduce destructive patterns
  • Strengthen friendship, respect, and emotional connection
  • Learn repair strategies that actually work in real time

DBT Integration

  • Manage emotional flooding during conflict
  • Stay regulated during difficult conversations
  • Improve communication clarity and boundary-setting

Outcomes

Couples therapy can help you:

  • Communicate without escalation
  • Resolve conflict more effectively
  • Rebuild trust after injury
  • Feel more connected and understood
Individual therapy

You don’t have to keep repeating the same patterns
