 Healing the Patterns. Deepening the Love.

Tending the living ecosystem between you so new possibilities can take root.

Couples Therapy in Berkeley and Petaluma with Tuyet-Lyn

Relationships are living ecosystems—tender, complex, composting, and always evolving. When something in that ecosystem breaks down, it can ripple through every part of your life.

I offer couples therapy for partners who want to slow down, listen deeply, and tend to the vitality of their relationship. My work integrates relational, somatic (body-aware), and expressive approaches, supporting you in navigating conflict, healing old wounds, and reconnecting to the love you both envision.

Sessions are available online throughout California and in-person in Berkeley and Petaluma.

A Space to Slow Down and Listen

Our work is grounded, heartfelt, and attentive to who each of you is—and who you are together.

My Approach to Couples Therapy

Couples therapy with me is a space to understand the deeper patterns shaping your connection and to find ways of relating that feel more intentional, alive, and sustainable.

Together, we explore:

  • The body’s signals and nervous system responses

  • Early relational imprints and unconscious patterns

  • The moment-to-moment dynamics between you

  • The ways your histories and identities meet and interact

  • The practices that nurture connection, repair, and vitality

I hold space for the full range of human experience—tenderness, conflict, confusion, longing, grief, desire, and hope.

What We Can Work On Together

Couples often come to therapy for support with:

  • Communication that feels honest, kind, and connective

  • Repairing after conflict, rupture, or betrayal

  • Finding each other again in moments of distance or disconnection

  • Navigating life transitions (parenthood, loss, relocation, identity shifts)

  • Rekindling intimacy and desire

  • Understanding interpersonal and intergenerational patterns

  • Working with nervous system responses in moments of stress

  • Creating practices and rituals that support your relationship over time

A Gentle Invitation

If you’re feeling stuck in patterns or longing for something different in your relationship, this can be a place to begin.

If something in you is curious about working together, I invite you to connect.

A conversation can help us sense into whether this feels like the right fit—a place where you can land, explore, and be supported in the ways you need.
