Couples Therapy

Dr. Pasahow works with couples to restore and strengthen relationships.

In couples therapy, we work together to understand what’s driving the disconnection — and how to repair it with compassion, clarity, and deeper emotional understanding.

Why work with Dr. Pasahow?

With a wide variety of creative techniques drawn from evidence-based research, Dr. Pasahow’s approach is effective and at the same time, fun and exciting.

Her unique approach combines cutting-edge research in neuroscience with an understanding of emotional behavior and our  biological need to bond with others.

Common Concerns

You might be...

  • Arguing over the same issues with no resolution

  • Struggling with intimacy or mismatched sexual desire

  • Feeling emotionally shut down, withdrawn, or resentful

  • Facing infidelity, secrecy, or broken trust

  • Navigating transitions like parenting, illness, or loss

  • Unsure if the relationship can or should continue

  • Breaking of relationship contracts and infidelity

Struggles can leave both partners feeling misunderstood, hurt, or hopeless. 

But therapy and couples counseling can create a space where new patterns can emerge.

What to Expect

In Our Work Together

PACT Therapy (Psychobiological Approach to Couples Therapy)

  • Rooted in attachment theory, developmental neuroscience, and nervous system regulation

  • Helps couples build a secure-functioning relationship based on mutual care, fairness, and safety

  • Encourages open-hearted connection through real-time emotional attunement

  • Especially effective for high-conflict couples or those with unresolved relational trauma

Hakomi Mindful Somatic Psychotherapy

  • Teaches each partner to recognize and regulate their own nervous system states

  • Uses body awareness, breathwork, and mindful presence to ground in the present

  • Supports more honest, attuned, and embodied communication

More Than Talk Therapy

I help individuals and couples explore past experiences with compassion and understanding, enabling them to transform and grow. This method is more experiential and profound compared to traditional talk therapies, and I’ve found it to be highly effective in helping people find lasting change, connection, and fulfillment.
