Meet Dr. Ludin
I provide evidence-based couples therapy for partners in San Francisco, Silicon Valley, and across the Bay Area. My work focuses on helping couples address relational conflict, intimacy challenges, and life transitions using structured, clinically grounded approaches. Sessions are offered via telehealth throughout California.
Reasons Couples Seek Therapy
Ongoing conflict or communication breakdowns
Feeling stuck in recurring arguments or patterns
Loss of intimacy or sexual disconnection
Struggles around parenting, co-parenting, or family boundaries
Navigating major life transitions (new parenthood, career changes, illness, relocation)
Rebuilding trust after ruptures or breaches
My Approach to Couples Therapy
Couples therapy typically begins with an assessment phase to understand relational patterns, areas of distress, and existing strengths. My approach is grounded in attachment science, systems theory, and empirically supported models of couples and family therapy. I work actively and collaboratively, with an emphasis on clarity, structure, and helping couples move out of entrenched dynamics rather than remaining in open-ended process.
Who This Work is For…
I work with couples who are motivated to understand their relational patterns and engage in meaningful change. This includes couples navigating long-standing conflict, intimacy challenges, parenting stress, and complex life transitions. My practice is a good fit for those seeking a thoughtful, evidence-based approach rather than quick fixes or purely supportive counseling.
