Relationship Counseling in Portland, Maine
Strengthen Your Relationship, Heal Together
Every relationship has challenges. You may be experiencing communication breakdowns, recurring conflict, emotional disconnection, or trust issues. Perhaps past trauma—either individual or relational—feels like it’s getting in the way. Relationship counseling offers a safe, supportive space to explore these challenges and strengthen connection.
I provide relationship therapy in Portland and Falmouth, Maine and via telehealth throughout the state, supporting couples of all backgrounds.
What You Can Expect in Relationship Therapy
In our sessions, you can expect:
A safe, nonjudgmental environment to discuss challenges and hopes
Skills to improve communication and resolve conflicts more effectively
Gottman Method interventions to strengthen friendship, trust, and intimacy
Exploration of relational patterns rooted in individual trauma, attachment wounds, or spiritual and cultural experiences
Integration of DBT and ACT strategies, mindfulness, and self-compassion to manage emotional reactivity and foster empathy
Tools to navigate grief, loss, or major life transitions together
Existential-humanistic approaches to explore meaning, purpose, and shared values
Poetry and creative expression (when appropriate) to process emotions and communicate authentically
Gottman Method Couples Therapy
The Gottman Method is an evidence-based approach designed to strengthen the friendship and emotional connection between partners, but these tools can be utilized for other relationships as well. It focuses on:
Improving communication and conflict resolution
Enhancing understanding of each partner’s needs and values
Building trust and shared meaning
Supporting long-term relationship satisfaction
By combining the Gottman Method with trauma-informed approaches, couples can navigate past hurts, rebuild trust, and grow together in healthier ways.
