Couples Therapy for Relationships That Feel Stuck
Relationships can feel so HARD. I see couples all the time who love each other desperately but just can’t seem to make it work. Some couples say: “It’s like we keep having the same fight over and over again and nothing ever gets resolved. We have a big fight, followed by silence, and then we just go back to our daily lives without ever working through the issues until the next fight happens. I don’t know what’s happening or why it’s happening but it’s just awful.”
Other couples share a different experience. “We used to fight all the time, but we don’t fight much anymore. In fact, we hardly talk about any of the important things at all. It’s like all those years of burying things has created an ocean of disconnect between us. I don’t know if we can ever find our way back to each other.”
Through repeated patterns of negative interactions, partners are often left asking themselves these painful questions:
Will I ever get my needs met in this relationship?
Can I really count on my partner to be there for me when I need them?
I feel so lonely. Will we ever be able to connect again?
Helping Couples Break Negative Cycles
If you can relate to these stories, please know this isn’t how your love story needs to end. I help couples get out of these negative cycles and work towards creating a lasting, loving, secure relationship. I can help you too!
As an EFT-certified couples therapist, I help partners identify and step out of the negative cycles that keep them feeling disconnected, misunderstood, or stuck. Together, we work toward creating a relationship that feels safer, more responsive, and more emotionally connected.
Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT)
I specialize in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT), one of the most researched and most effective models of relationship therapy available. EFT helps couples:
Understand the emotional patterns driving conflict or disconnection
Rebuild trust and emotional safety
Create lasting change that continues beyond therapy
This approach is especially effective for couples experiencing ongoing conflict, emotional distance, or difficulty feeling secure and connected. Learn more about EFT and couples therapy on my Couples Specialization page.

Meet Tsoline Kouyoumjian
(She/Her/Hers)
I know how scary it can be to start therapy with a complete stranger. My hope is that from the moment we first connect, my warm, down to earth personality puts you at ease.
While I do draw from different modalities, my natural style is mostly what is called “humanistic”. This modality of therapy assumes you are a whole person with a natural drive to learn and grow. I find that this approach resonates with my values of authenticity, self-growth, empathy, self-understanding, and positive regard for self and others. I believe we are all doing our best at any given moment and as we learn more and gain the tools we need, we make better choices for ourselves.
So, I hope you hear this above everything else: I hold no judgement of you, and I trust you are always doing the best you can. As we gain new insight and tools, change becomes possible.
