Couples Therapy for High Performers
Based in Tampa. Teletherapy services available in most states.
Couples Therapy Can Help
Couples therapy offers a valuable space for professionals who are juggling the demands of high-pressure jobs, the challenges of perfectionism, responsibilities at home, infertility, or parenting issues.
Through therapy, you and your partner can develop the skills and confidence to articulate your needs and desires in a clear and constructive manner.
Strengthen Your Partnership for Success
Be heard and understood by your partner, fostering a deeper level of emotional connection and mutual support. By expressing your concerns, you create space for open dialogue and problem-solving, preventing issues from escalating and improving overall relationship satisfaction.
Together, we explore the unique dynamics of your relationship, fostering understanding, communication, and connection.
Through our work together we strive to:
- Rediscover shared values, goals, and aspirations
- Foster constructive dialogue
- Rebuild trust
- Enhance intimacy
Turn Conflict into Lasting Connection
- Are you and your partner fighting over the same issues and getting nowhere?
- Have you attempted to address these concerns and things only seem to escalate and end in frustration and hurt feelings?
- Are you and your partner becoming all too familiar with patterns of isolation and disconnection?
Rebuild Intimacy and Overcome Resentment in Your Relationship
As a clinical psychologist with focused training and expertise in treating couples’ concerns, Dr. Laura has discovered that most conflict stems from one major concept: a couple maintains distress due to a lack of resolution of key issues.
The lack of closure causes couples to remain stuck, as resentments and distance increase and intimacy decreases.
As a Level-1 Trained Gottman clinician, Dr. Laura has treated couples of various backgrounds, ethnicities, and orientations. She uses research-backed, tailored interventions to address and treat dynamic issues couples commonly face, such as conflict resolution, compromise, communication barriers, and incongruent needs for intimacy.
Our couples therapy goals include:
- Improving conflict resolution skills
- Fostering effective communication
- Finding healthy compromises
- Addressing and reconciling intimacy needs
- Building mutual understanding and respect
- Strengthening emotional connection
Do work stress and emotional distance make you feel more like roommates than partners?

Meet Dr. Laura
As an experienced doctorate-level therapist, I understand the overwhelming pressures that professionals face every day. It’s easy to feel like you’re drowning in responsibilities, worrying about making mistakes, not being good enough, or letting others down.
These thoughts and feelings can lead to anxiety, unmitigated stress, and even depression, which can be difficult to manage on your own.
