Couples Therapy · Relational Transformation
Understand, connect and transform together
A space to transform the relationship, whether to strengthen it or to support a conscious and respectful separation.
"People don't fall in love with a person, they fall in love with a relationship." — Mara Selvini (1999)
In Session
I support couples going through different moments and challenges in their relationship. These are some of the topics we can work on together.
Assertive Communication
Express needs clearly and listen actively without reactivity. Build a space where both feel heard and validated, breaking communication patterns that create distance.
Conflict Resolution
Handle disagreements constructively, breaking cycles of misunderstanding and creating new ways to resolve differences. Learn to argue without every conversation becoming a battle.
Expat Couples
Address the stress of migration as a couple, the distance from support networks, and the cultural adaptation that can generate unexpected friction. Sometimes the new environment brings out sides the other didn't know.
Strengthening the Bond
Reinforce trust, intimacy, and emotional connection. Rediscover the reasons that brought you together and build upon them. We work on rebuilding complicity and the desire to invest in the relationship.
Healthy Separations
When the decision has been made, support a conscious and respectful process to close the cycle without carrying more emotional damage. End well to move forward with peace.
Rewriting the story of the relationship
My approach combines psychoeducation and cognitive-behavioral therapy techniques. In therapy, we explore the bond, learn to compromise and commit healthily, validate desires, and reduce guilt.
Many times the problems aren't about lack of love, but about not knowing how to listen, understand, or communicate with each other. Being able to accompany, mediate, and help people reconnect and break those cycles of misunderstanding is what really gives meaning to my work.
The methodological foundation is psychoeducation, so the couple understands what's happening and why they repeat certain patterns. I don't limit myself to one approach: I combine different methods according to what each couple needs.
Arguing isn't the problem. The problem is how we argue. Assertive communication in a relationship can be learned.

How does couples therapy work?
A structured path where both commit to working together for the relationship.
Initial Session
Get to know each other, understand the reason for consultation, and clarify what each one expects from the process. We apply brief assessment tools.
Individual Sessions
If useful, a session with each member to better understand their ways of relating and how they express themselves separately.
Therapeutic Contract
Together we define what each one wants to change, what we will work on, and how to implement changes with practical actions.
Active Work
Weekly or biweekly sessions of 60-75 minutes, actively working on communication and relationship patterns.

How long is a couples therapy session?
Couples therapy sessions last between 60 and 75 minutes. This time allows both members of the couple to express themselves and work on relevant issues without feeling rushed.
How often should we attend?
It's recommended to start with weekly sessions to maintain the momentum of therapeutic work. Once there is significant progress, we can move to biweekly frequency.
What if one of us doesn't want to come?
For the couples therapy process to work, it's important that both people want to work together. Without that willingness from both, the results are significantly limited. However, we can explore options during the free assessment.
Do you handle cases of infidelity?
Yes. Infidelity is one of the most painful crises a couple can go through, but with proper work, many couples manage to rebuild trust and strengthen their bond. It's a process that requires commitment from both.
Do you work with couples who have decided to separate?
Yes, I support couples who want to end the relationship in a healthy and respectful way. The goal is to move forward without carrying more emotional damage than necessary, especially important if there are children involved.
What situations do you NOT handle in couples therapy?
I don't work in couples therapy with situations involving violence. In those cases, the approach needs to be different and requires specialized intervention. If I identify these types of situations, I guide towards appropriate resources and professionals.
