Families and Couples

Families are such beautiful and complex ecosystems. There is a saying that “No two children grow up in the same family.” I work with children and adolescents ages 8 - 18 as well as their parents to navigate all of the challenges that come with loving and living together. I work one-on-one, in dyads, and with families all together. Harmonizing the family system, whether members are together, separated, divorced, or reintegrating, is empowering and profound.

Intimacy and Connection

Relationships are why we are here.  I mean the word “relationships” broadly.  But intimate partnership, romantic connection, marriage or life partnership— these relationships offer us some of the most ecstatic and the most excruciating of all human experiences.  Oftentimes there is so little support to help our deepest relationships to thrive.

I love working with couples.  The goal is to use Heart Rhythm Meditation and intentional dialogue to repair, deepen, and broaden your connection with each other.  I have been heavily influenced by the Imago approach to couple’s work thanks to Karen Olson at the Caritas Center for Healing.  Having a spiritual connection, remembering your original spark and keeping it alive, and learning tools for bridging the divide between your worlds can help you navigate challenges and add longevity and meaning to your lives together.

What does a couple’s session look like?

A session looks like the three of us chatting for about an hour.  We won’t work with any difficult or triggering topics for a while. We will talk, breathe together, practice deep listening, gratitude, and hopeful visioning.  My role will be to guide meditation, facilitate structured intentional dialogue, and to highlight the moments and ways that you connect with each other.

How much does it cost?

One hour-long session is $100, or a three-session package is $275. One hour-and-a-half session is $150, or three 1.5 hour sessions is $400.

How many sessions do you recommend?

One session would be a fun date experience, three sessions would bring you closer and give you some tools to work with into the future, and ongoing sessions would offer you the ability to go deeply into your relationship until you achieve the kind of personal and spiritual closeness that you seek.
