Ignite Therapy of Austin is now partnered with The Center for Relationships (TCFR), a respected Austin practice specializing in couples and relational therapy.
Through this partnership, I am now offering in-person therapy for individuals, couples, and families at TCFR’s South Austin office.
If you are seeking couples or family therapy, or prefer in-person sessions, please schedule with me directly through The Center for Relationships website.
Online therapy through Ignite Therapy of Austin remains available for Texas-based individual clients. Schedule here.
In-Person Sessions
What is Couples Therapy?
Couples therapy helps partners improve communication, rebuild trust, and strengthen their emotional connection.
At The Center for Relationships, we draw from the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy, two evidence-based approaches that focus on understanding emotion, resolving conflict, and deepening intimacy.
Couples therapy focuses on repairing the emotional bond, increasing empathy, and helping partners respond to each other’s needs in healthier, more connected ways.
Escalating conflict cycles where arguments repeat without resolution
Emotional disconnection or a sense of drifting apart
Breaks in trust, whether through betrayal, withdrawal, infidelity, or unspoken resentment
Communication breakdowns that leave one or both partners feeling unheard
Erosion of friendship and shared meaning, when the relationship feels more like survival than support
Common Challenges Addressed
What is Family Therapy?
Families are complex systems. When one part of the system is under strain, everyone feels it.
Family therapy is about understanding these patterns and creating a healthier balance, where communication is clearer, relationships are stronger, and each member feels supported.
My work with families draws from strategic and structural family therapy, two approaches that help identify patterns that keep the family stuck and create practical, lasting change.
We’ll focus on how each person’s role, boundaries, and communication style interact. We create small, intentional shifts that bring the system back into harmony.
Constant tension or frequent arguments that make home life feel exhausting
Parenting stress or conflict around discipline and children’s behavior
Feeling disconnected, when one or more family members feel unseen or unheard
Transitions and role changes, such as adolescence, blended families, and college launches
External stressors straining home life, like school, work, or caregiving pressures
Common Challenges Addressed
