Couples Therapy in Mill Valley & Throughout California
This is a space where your relationship does not have to be perfect, polished, or performing.
We move at your pace, honoring what you and your partner have been through and what you are ready to share. No matter what season your relationship is in, you are met with care, presence, and respect, exactly as you are.
You love one another, but something feels different, distant, or harder than it used to be.
❋ feeling disconnected from each other
❋ struggling to communicate
Conversations turn into misunderstandings, shutdowns, or conflict instead of connection.
You want to feel understood and supported, but you keep missing each other emotionally.
❋FEELING UNSEEN OR UNHEARD
❋ CARRYING THE IMPACT OF PAST EXPERIENCES
Trauma, old patterns, or earlier wounds show up in your relationship, even when you want to move forward.
Becoming parents, changing roles, or increased stress can leave you feeling out of sync.
❋ NAVIGATING LIFE CHANGES AS A COUPLE
❋ WANTING TO RECONNECT AND FEEL CLOSE AGAIN
You may feel unsure how to find your way back to closeness, ease, or shared joy.
My Approach
Hi, I’m Rhiannon.
I work with couples of all orientations who love each other and want to feel more connected, supported, and aligned as they move through life together. Many of the couples I support are navigating the transition into parenthood, increased stress, changes in identity, or the emotional impact of past experiences that are now showing up in the relationship.
Our work together is grounded in slowing down, listening differently, and creating space for both partners to feel seen and understood. I bring mindfulness into the couples space in gentle, practical ways, helping you notice what is happening inside yourselves and between you so that you can respond with more care and clarity.
In our work, we will identify shared goals, strengthen communication, and build acceptance for yourselves and one another as a foundation for meaningful change. We may explore tools like shared reflection, gratitude, movement, or simple rituals that create positive experiences and support connection outside of session.
I welcome all identities, relationship structures, and lived experiences, and I believe every couple deserves a space where they can show up honestly, imperfectly, and without judgment.
Together in therapy, we will:
Create space for learning about yourselves and each other
Explore how you want to be in relationship
Strengthen communication and emotional understanding
Identify shared goals and values
Build practical supports for your relationship
Promote shared experiences, pleasure, and connection
Let’s work together to support you in showing up for each other.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
During the free consultation call, we will spend up to 30 minutes talking about what you hope to get out of therapy and how I can support you and your relationship. This is the space that allows you to get to know myself as a therapist and allows me to get to know you to ensure we are a good fit for each other. If we both decide to move forward in working on your goals together, we will chat about any necessary paperwork and scheduling our first session!
-
I meet with individuals for a 50 minute session and couples for a 60 minute session. We can discuss how often sessions will occur during our consultation meeting to best fit your needs and support you with reaching your goals.
-
If you are late for the scheduled session, the session end time remains the same and we will meet for a shorter session. If I am late, I will extend the session time to ensure we meet for the full 50 or 60 minutes. If you need to cancel please do so with at least 24 hours notice. If you cancel within 24 hours or do not show for a scheduled session, you will be charged a late cancellation fee. I understand that life can be full of the unexpected, let’s just stay in contact.
