Online Couples Therapy in California

How Online Couples Therapy Works

Online sessions allow you to meet from anywhere in California—your home, office, or another private space of your choice. All you need is a reliable internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone.

If you are joining from separate locations, each partner will receive a secure link to access the session. Sessions are held through a HIPAA-compliant video platform. You’ll receive a secure invitation link to my client portal before each session.

Online therapy may be a good fit if you:

  • Have demanding schedules

  • Prioritize privacy, comfort, and convenience

  • Prefer consistent, accessible support without the need to travel to appointments

Many couples find that being in a familiar environment helps them feel more comfortable and engaged in the process. And yes—your pets are welcome in session.

When Does Couples Therapy Help

Couples therapy supports you at any stage—whether you’re in crisis, feeling stuck in ongoing patterns, or wanting to strengthen your connection.

Common reasons couples seek therapy

  • Emotional distance or loss of intimacy

  • Rebuilding trust after betrayal

  • Navigating life transitions, including parenting challenges

  • Escalating or unresolved conflict

  • Communication challenges, difficulty expressing needs, feelings, or boundaries

My Approach

We focus on understanding the patterns in your relationship and what keeps them repeating.

With greater awareness, couples are supported in shifting patterns in ways that feel practical and supportive in daily life.

Working Together

The goal in our work together is to bring clarity to what brings you to therapy and build practical skills that support the relationship you want to have. Together, we focus on real-time patterns in how you communicate and connect, creating meaningful shifts in the process.

To support progress between sessions, you’ll receive a digital notebook with key takeaways and optional at-home exercises to support your goals.

What to Expect in First Session

The first session is focused on understanding your relationship and what brings you to therapy. We will:

  • Explore current concerns and relevant relationship history

  • Clarify what each of you hopes to change

  • Begin identifying goals and establishing a clear direction and pace for our work together
