Who Is This For?

This is your first, most strategic step. It's for couples who want data-driven insight before committing to a long-term path:

  • The "Curious & Analytical": You want an objective, evidence-based look at what's working and what's not

  • The "Stuck Starter": You know you want to improve but feel overwhelmed and don't know where to begin

  • The "Therapy-Curious": You're considering couples therapy but want to "test the waters" with a structured, short-term engagement first

  • The "Proactive Planners": You're in a good place and want a detailed check-up and a maintenance plan for the future

 

Your 4-Step Journey to Clarity

This package is designed to diagnose and plan, not to treat. You will finish with a profound understanding of your relationship and a clear, personalized set of next steps.

  • Let's meet! This first video call is for us to connect, discuss your goals for the assessment, and ensure this process feels like the right fit for you both.
    I’ll ask you about your relationship history, ongoing dynamics and future directions.

  • You’ll each complete the renowned Gottman Relationship Checkup online. This scientific tool provides a comprehensive snapshot of your relationship across key areas, highlighting your strengths and opportunities for growth.

  • A vital part of a thorough assessment. In these confidential, one-on-one conversations, I gain a deeper understanding of your individual perspectives, histories, family dynamics, and hopes. This ensures the final report is holistic and truly understands the "you" behind the "we."

  • This is where everything comes together. In our final joint session, we will:

    • Review your relationship's unique strengths and growth areas, as revealed by the assessment

    • I will present you with your Detailed Discovery Report - a written summary of our findings

    • Together, we'll discuss and co-create a Personalized Relationship Roadmap

  • This is the core deliverable. Your roadmap will outline:

    1. Your Relationship Strengths: A celebration of what you already do well—your solid foundation

    2. Key Growth Areas: 1-3 focused areas that, if improved, would have the biggest positive impact

    3. Two Clear Paths Forward:

      • Path A: Continue the Journey with Me. A clear proposal for what ongoing therapy would look like, including the focus of our work and a recommended session structure

      • Path B: Your Independent Action Plan. For couples who wish to work on their own, this includes specific, practical tips, exercises, and resources (like book or app recommendations) based on your unique roadmap

No pressure, no obligation - just clarity and choice.
