Couples Therapy in California

When it feels like you’re having the same fight over and over—and nothing is changing

If you’re seeking couples therapy in California, you may feel stuck in familar arguments, caught in cycles of blame, or slowly growing distant from each other—unsure how to move forward together.

Even when you care deeply, it can start to feel like you’re on opposite sides.

I offer online couples therapy for partners across California, helping you understand your patterns, improve communication, work through conflict, and rebuild connection using approaches like Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and the Gottman Method.

Start with a consultation or schedule a session to get started

When communication starts to break down

You may find yourselves having the same conversation over and over—one of you trying to talk it through, the other pulling away or shutting down. Small moments can escalate quickly, or get “swept under the rug” until they build into resentment, distance or disconnection.

  • You might feel:

    • Misunderstood or not fully heard

    • Like you’re walking on eggshells

    • Emotionally distant, even when you’re together

    • Frustrated that nothing seems to shift

Why the same arguments keep occurring

Most relationship struggles aren’t really about “the dishes”—they’re about needs that aren’t being clearly expressed or understood.

So the pattern continues: the same argument, the same reactions, the same outcome.

Over time, this can leave both of you feeling unheard, unappreciated, or alone.

In our work, we reflect on these moments so you can clearly understand what’s happening within each of you—and begin responding in ways that actually change the dynamic.

How to move from reactivity to reconnection

  • You’ll learn how to:

    • Stay grounded during difficult conversations

    • Speak openly without it turning into a fight

    • Listen in a way that helps your partner feel understood

    • Work through conflict without it escalating or shutting down

    Over time, this creates more emotional safety, closeness and understanding.

This may be a good fit if you:

  • Consider starting if you:

    • Feel stuck in the same arguments without resolution

    • Notice growing distance or disconnection

    • Are working through trust issues or trying to rebuild after a betrayal

    • Want to communicate better but don’t know how

    • Care about each other and want things to feel different

What you can expect:

  • This may be a good fit if you are looking for:

    • A space where both of you feel heard and respected

    • Sessions that are structured, focused and productive

    • Practical tools you can use in everyday moments

    • A deeper understanding of what’s been getting in the way of your closeness

Areas of Expertise

I am extensively trained in relational, trauma-informed, and culturally responsive approaches tailored to your specific needs. My work examines the emotional and interpersonal patterns that shape how you love, lead, parent, and move through the world.

Together, we explore how early experiences, cultural expectations, and social conditioning influence present relationships and choices. Therapy becomes a space to step off autopilot, strengthen communication, deepen connection, and move toward a more centered and fulfilling way of living.

Like many of you, I wear many hats.

I’m an Asian American woman of Indian descent who loves bold spices, good conversation, and yes — New York pizza. As a proud New Yorker, I know what it means to move fast, think fast, and live in a constant state of “being on.” Moving to California was my way of slowing down and realigning with my true professional calling.

I grew up with immigrant parents in a predominantly white suburb, where I witnessed mental health struggles, isolation, discrimination, and relationship stress unfold. Those early experiences helped me see how cultural conditioning, socialization, and people-pleasing/perfectionism can keep us stuck in cycles of overreacting and overfunctioning — and they continue to shape how I support clients today.

At age 40, I made a significant career pivot. Like many obedient daughters, I initially chose the “practical” route and earned my MBA in I/O Psychology. I spent a decade in corporate media leading marketing teams for Fortune 500 companies in New York City. While I thrived in many ways, I eventually realized I wanted work that felt more fulfilling, not just “impressive.”

Becoming a therapist specializing in relationships was one of the toughest and most meaningful decisions of my life. After all, there is nothing I love more than love!

For over 20 years, I was in an interracial relationship. Living through different phases of love, conflict, repair, and growth profoundly shaped my understanding of long-term partnership and just how dynamic relationships truly are.

Now, as a parent of two school-age children and two fur babies (who absolutely believe they are in charge), I’m reminded daily that connection isn’t built through perfection — it’s built through presence, responsiveness, and re-dos.

These lived experiences inform how I relate to my clients, supported by structured, evidence-based clinical training that guides our work together.

I integrate modalities including:

• Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
• Internal Family Systems (IFS)
• Gottman-Informed Couples Therapy
• Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
• Mindfulness-Based Therapy
• Nervous System Regulation

🌿 My Approach

Therapy is, first and foremost, a relationship.

It’s about finding a rhythm together — one that feels calm, honest, and collaborative. I offer a safe, affirming space where you can slow down, reflect, and make sense of what’s happening within you and in your relationship with the world around you.

We explore your story — your cultural background, relationship patterns, stressors, triggers, and strengths. We look at how anxiety, people-pleasing, perfectionism, overfunctioning, or disconnection may be affecting the way you show up.

We don’t just build awareness, we also build skills.

In a practical, embodied way, we practice mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and interpersonal skills — for communication, for self-compassion, and for responding rather than reacting.

I believe that when we understand our patterns, soften self-criticism, and externalize blame, we create space for more connected and intentional living.
