Ready to start healing your relationship?

Meet Alice Grutman

Relationship Therapist

You remember a time when arguing and feeling unheard weren't the norm... but those days feel like a distant memory. Don't you wish you had the tools to change that?

You've come to the right place.

I'm Alice Grutman and I help couples and individuals just like you: Ones who care so deeply about their partner, but need a non-judgmental space to rediscover love and trust.

I help my clients find connection, peace, and security by providing the support and tools they need to better themselves, their partner, and their relationship.

Many of today's solutions for relationship therapy are surface level and not based on actual research on relationships, leading so many to feel like they are not making any real progress. I know that you you want to get to the heart of the matter with an expert who has the experience and training to help you make lasting change in your relationship. That’s why every step we take is based on decades of relationship research, including the deep emotional processing needed to build connection and trust and skills and education that you can use right away to de-escalate arguments outside of session.

Through our work together, you'll begin to understand yourself and your partner more deeply, while also gaining the tools and skills you need to thrive in your relationship.

I am dedicated to helping couples reconnect.

This is so important, as relationship therapy is much different than individual therapy and it’s important to find someone who is trained to help you navigate through this. I get it because I have dedicated my career to helping people with their relationships. I know that sometimes you just want to throw in the towel. I know that the distance and tension feel so painful. I also know you’re longing to just feel heard and understood. So when we work together you won’t just be getting a trained therapist. You will be getting someone who truly understands the impact this has on you and your partner.

My training in Emotion Focused Therapy, The Gottman Method, affair recovery, trauma therapy, and navigating polyamory and open relationships means I have the expertise you need and deserve when healing your relationship. But at the end of the day, you want to know you're working with someone who’s an expert and truly “gets” what it means to be struggling in their relationship, right?
