Therapy & Intensives
for Couples
I offer a grounded, evidence-based space where mind and body come back into dialogue. Together, we slow down, listen deeply, and reconnect with what is already alive within you — allowing clarity, resilience, and authentic connection to emerge naturally.
THE APPROACH
Tending to Relationships is about a Felt Sense of Connection
I will support you in healing past hurt AND in creating the relationship you want with less effort and more connection
We will explore and ease communication patterns and conflict opportunities, discover how you can feel heard and seen by your partner, and how to resolve and heal wounding, something that happens naturally when we connect with other people.
You will feel more understood by and understanding with your partner. This allows you to shift from stress and tension towards connection and intimacy.
Weekly 50 min Sessions
This is for you if...
... you want your relationship to be a place where you can heal and grown the most - this is possible when the relationship is offering enough space, mindful awareness and courage to stay in touch with ourselves in the presence of another human being. The intimate relationship itself becomes the “vehicle for growth and
healing of the individual, as well as the couple” (Tony Herbine Blank).
​
... you if you want to consciously uncouple with your partner and find a way to stay in meaningful connection while walking separate paths.

Intensives - 3h Session
Deepen your insights into how and why you came into this relationship, as an emotional, spiritual, physical, and astral being.
THE APPROACH
Align to your Source of Self Healing
Unlike traditional weekly sessions, intensives allow us to stay with your systems pace and allow for the self healing process to happen more deeply and quickly.
​
In Intensives, we get to align to your systems pace even more and allow for the unfolding to happen with more space - you will get to experience a profound relational connection with your inner system of parts and connection to your source of self healing.
​
The felt sense of connectivity with your partner allows you to bring home more of an embodied communication style with your partner, geared towards attunement and care, and less of a verbal argumentative communication style, where both partners often are left with a sense of disconnection
INTENSIVES FOR DEEP DIVERS
This is for you if...
... if you and your partner want to increase your sense of alignement with each other - may it be in moments of crisis and a felt sense of urgency or in moments of missing attunement with each other. Especially clients with a busy schedule, who are very engaged in their work or parenting children, can gain a lot of insights that shifts their relationship from a survival based pattern towards openness and change during intensives.
​
It is also possible to focus the intensive on one of the following topics: conscious uncoupling, miscarriage/ family planning, communication, money, intimacy and sex.
* Cost: 700 USD/ 3h
