Relationships can be deeply fulfilling, but they can also bring forward some of our most vulnerable emotions. Challenges around communication, intimacy, trust, sex, and unmet needs are common, and many couples find themselves repeating patterns that can be difficult to shift alone.

In couples therapy, Bob works with partners to better understand the emotional dynamics shaping their relationship. Together, couples explore attachment patterns, communication styles, fears, and vulnerabilities that may be creating distance or conflict. The goal is to help partners develop greater emotional awareness, strengthen their connection, and build healthier ways of relating.

Bob’s work with couples can include conversations around intimacy and sexuality, recovery and substance use, communication patterns, emotional safety, and rebuilding trust. He welcomes couples of all backgrounds, including queer couples, LGBTQ+ partnerships, and non-traditional relationship structures.

Drawing from Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), the Gottman Method, systemic therapy, and somatic practices, Bob supports couples in slowing down, listening more deeply to one another, and creating a relationship grounded in empathy, honesty, and mutual respect.
