Couples Therapy for Parents Who Feel More Like Roommates Than Partners

Parenthood changes almost everything.

If you've found yourselves talking more about schedules than each other, feeling emotionally distant, or struggling to find time for your relationship, therapy can help.

If Any Of This Sounds Familiar, You're Not Alone

  • You spend so much energy on the kids that there's very little left for your relationship.
  • Most conversations are about schedules, chores and getting through the week.
  • You feel more like housemates than partners.
  • Small disagreements seem to turn into the same argument over and over.
  • Intimacy and affection have faded.
  • You've started wondering whether things can really get better.
  • Part of you worries about what the future of your relationship looks like.

Hi, I'm Annie.

I work with couples who have become disconnected from each other somewhere amongst the demands of family life.

Some feel lonely in the relationship.

Some are stuck in conflict.

Some are wondering whether things can get better.

Others are questioning what the future of their relationship might look like.

My role is to help you understand what's happening beneath the distance, hurt or frustration and help you create a path forward, together.

My approach is warm, practical and non-judgemental.

Together we'll explore the patterns that keep you stuck and help you reconnect in ways that feel meaningful and lasting.
