in Irwin, PA
EFT and Gottman-informed couples therapy for communication, trust, and relationship repair. Serving Irwin and North Huntingdon via secure telehealth.
Relationship Therapy That Goes Beneath the Surface
Most couples don’t have a communication problem — they have an emotional disconnection problem. The arguments, the growing distance, the feeling that you keep having the same fight over and over — these are symptoms of something deeper that couples therapy can address at its root.
Our couples therapists draw from Emotionally Focused Therapy and Gottman Method principles — two of the most researched approaches to relationship work. We help partners identify the negative cycle keeping them stuck, understand the emotions beneath the conflict, and build genuine connection that lasts.

Evidence-Based Couples Therapy Approaches
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
EFT targets the attachment patterns driving disconnection — helping partners understand the emotions beneath surface conflict and build secure, lasting connection.
Gottman Method
Addresses the four patterns that predict relationship breakdown — criticism, contempt, defensiveness, stonewalling — and builds the friendship that sustains relationships long-term.
Trauma-Informed Couples Work
When individual trauma affects relationship dynamics, we address how each partner’s history shows up in relational patterns — essential for deeper, more lasting change.
Telehealth Couples Therapy
Both partners attend via secure video — from the same location or separately. Many couples find telehealth reduces friction around scheduling and attendance.
