Helping Couples Understand and Repair the Patterns That Shape Their Relationships
Healthy relationships are not simply the result of good communication. They are shaped by deeper emotional patterns, attachment dynamics, and the ways partners respond during moments of conflict, vulnerability, and trust.
Through her clinical work, teaching, and research-informed approach to relationships, Carly helps couples identify the patterns shaping their relationship and develop the insight and skills needed to rebuild connection, repair trust, and create more secure and fulfilling partnerships.
Couples Counseling
Couples often come to counseling when they feel stuck repeating the same painful conflicts, struggling to reconnect emotionally, or trying to rebuild trust after a betrayal. Couples counseling provides a structured space to slow down these patterns, understand what is happening beneath the surface of conflict, and begin rebuilding connection.
Carly integrates two of the most well-researched approaches to couples therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) and Gottman Method Couple Therapy, to help partners better understand the emotional and relational patterns shaping their relationship. Rather than simply learning communication techniques, couples work to repair trust, strengthen emotional safety, and develop new ways of responding to one another during moments of conflict and vulnerability.
Research on Emotionally Focused Therapy shows that many couples are able to move from distress toward greater understanding, reconnection, and relationship recovery through this process.
Whether you are hoping to end destructive arguing, rebuild trust after an affair, or understand the deeper patterns that keep your relationship stuck, couples counseling can help you and your partner create a more secure, honest, and fulfilling partnership.

Trust & Repair INTENSIVES
Sometimes couples reach a point where the situation in their relationship feels too urgent, painful, or complicated to wait weeks between therapy sessions. This is especially common after the discovery of an affair, during periods of escalating conflict, or when partners are beginning to question whether the relationship can survive. Intensives offer couples the opportunity to step away from daily distractions and spend dedicated time working through the most important issues in their relationship with focused guidance and support.
During an intensive, couples have the time and space to slow down difficult conversations, better understand the patterns shaping their relationship, and begin meaningful work toward rebuilding trust, restoring emotional connection, and gaining clarity about the future of the relationship. Many couples find that the extended format allows them to make more progress in one or two days than they might otherwise make over several months of traditional weekly therapy.
Intensives are designed as focused blocks of time that allow couples to engage in deeper therapeutic work than is typically possible in traditional weekly sessions.
One-Day Intensive
Approximately 6 hours of structured therapeutic work
Two-Day Intensive
Approximately 12 hours of therapeutic work across two days
Each intensive is thoughtfully structured to include guided conversations, attachment-focused exploration of relationship patterns, and practical strategies for rebuilding trust and strengthening connection.
Intensives May Be Especially Helpful For Couples Who Are:
Reeling from the recent discovery of an affair or other betrayal and needing immediate support to begin understanding what happened and what comes next.
Experiencing arguments that are becoming more frequent, intense, or hostile, leaving both partners feeling exhausted, defensive, and unsure how to stop the cycle.
Considering separation or unsure about the future of the relationship and wanting a structured space to slow down the decision-making process and gain clarity.
Feeling overwhelmed by the level of conflict or emotional distance in the relationship and wanting to address the issues before things deteriorate further.
Wanting to make meaningful progress quickly, either as a starting point before transitioning into weekly couples therapy or as a way to accelerate work that has felt slow or stuck.

Individual Counseling
Individual counseling can be a powerful space to better understand yourself, your relationship patterns, and the experiences that shape how you show up in intimate relationships.
Many people seek individual counseling when they are navigating relationship challenges, recovering from betrayal, healing from past relational trauma, or trying to make sense of difficult decisions about the future of a relationship. Through thoughtful exploration and guided reflection, individual counseling can help you develop greater self-understanding, strengthen emotional resilience, and clarify the kind of relationships you want to build in your life.
This work often focuses on identifying recurring relational patterns, rebuilding self-trust, and helping you move forward with greater confidence, clarity, and emotional security.
