Hello@TheJoyTherapist.co

You can love someone deeply and still be miserable inside the life you have built together.

 Maybe you keep thinking: "If I don't do it, who will?" "How I feel isn't even a consideration." "Every time I ask for something I need, they hear criticism and withdraw." Underneath it all may be an even scarier thought: I'm going to burn out if only one of us holds all the responsibility for keeping our life together.


 

Before another argument about chores, money, parenting, sex, schedules, or who is doing more, there is a more important question: What is actually happening between us?

Get in Touch

What This Is - and Isn’t

 

This is a live psychoeducational workshop, not group psychotherapy. You will not be asked to disclose intimate relationship details to strangers. Most of the experience is teaching, anonymous polls, private reflection, and partner exercises. Both partners must attend and be 18+. The workshop is not appropriate for emergencies or situations in which private partner exercises would feel unsafe.

What You’ll Do


  • Understand why two people can love each other and still feel miserable day to day.
  • Identify the recurring pattern underneath seemingly unrelated arguments.
  • Explore how household labor, money, parenting, family-of-origin, and culture shape expectations of partnership.
  • Translate surface conflict into the deeper need to feel seen, considered, valued, safe, and supported.
  • Have a structured private conversation with your partner - off camera and not shared with the group.
  • Identify whether your next conversation is Reconnect, Repair, or Reconsider.
  • Leave with a seven-day, 20-minute-a-day Relationship Clarity Challenge™.

Real Results

Proven outcomes that speak for themselves and make a meaningful difference for your relationship.


The material and accompanying prompts in this workshop's framework and workbook are original educational adaptations informed by attachment science, Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy (EFT), research on perceived partner responsiveness and intimacy, and research on cognitive/household labor. The individual workbook exercises have not themselves been validated as stand-alone clinical interventions.

    Hello...

     

    Talking with people from diverse backgrounds comes easily to me. In part due to my cultural identity (Muscogee/Seminole/Cherokee), education, training, and work experience, but mainly because I know our relationship with others is a powerful healing force. 


    I work closely with adults and couples who are intentional about experiencing more joy in their lives. 

    I am passionate about addressing issues that can stem from generations of family dysfunction and impact a person's view of themself and the world around them. I teach how to recreate calm, restore emotional closeness in meaningful relationships, and gain a new perspective on concerns. 

    Relationship Help

    I help people negotiate the most intimate aspects of their most personal relationships. In my work with couples, we identify hurtful patterns that prevent their connection from being a haven for both partners. Couples learn to address the root of problems in conflict resolution and are rewarded with deeper trust and intimacy.
