Couples Therapy in Leiden, in English and Spanish

Starting Couples Therapy

I am a couples therapist, working in English and Spanish, in Leiden and online. If you arrived here, there is something you and/or your partner want to work through. Couples therapy can help you navigate your differences, get unstuck, understand the puzzling question “How did we get here?”, and begin to see the path forward. There is something this relationship has come to teach you, let’s explore that.

Even if you can work on your relationship between the two (or more) of you, sometimes it is much easier in the therapy room, with a therapist there to help.

I work with both heterosexual and queer couples.

To start couples therapy, send me an email through the contact page.

Get in touch

Couples therapy can help you when…

  • You are navigating a transition: moving in together, getting married, becoming parents, career change.
  • There is a topic you don’t know how to navigate: cultural differences, an affair, sexual intimacy, in-laws, etc.
  • There are areas of conflict where you are stuck; the same issues keep coming up, but nothing changes.
  • You are growing apart. The level of affection, intimacy, and sense of “partnership” is decreasing.
  • You often feel disappointed, frustrated, misunderstood or hurt.
  • You feel lonely in the relationship.
  • You have doubts about the relationship.
  • You want support and guidance in the process of ending the relationship.

During couples therapy, we will…

  • Understand the dynamics that are at play between you and your partner.
  • Recognize deep-rooted patterns that keep resurfacing in the relationship.
  • Work through any unresolved issues from the past.
  • Start to repair any painful experience: Betrayal, infidelity, loss.
  • Learn how to navigate conflict, disagreement, and differences.
  • Strengthen your friendship by knowing your partner’s inner world.
  • Create a shared sense of purpose, values, and meaning.
