Hi, I’m Jennifer Burrell, but please call me Paisley. I specialize in working with couples who love each other deeply but feel stuck in painful patterns they can’t seem to change on their own. You may find yourselves having the same arguments again and again, struggling to communicate, feeling more like roommates than partners, or trying to heal after infidelity, betrayal, or years of hurt. My approach is warm, collaborative, and experiential. Rather than simply teaching communication skills, I help couples understand what’s happening underneath their conflicts—the emotions, attachment needs, and protective patterns that keep them disconnected. Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is at the heart of my work. I also integrate IFS-informed therapy, mindfulness, and somatic awareness. I work with couples across many relationship structures and identities, including monogamous, LGBTQ+, consensually non-monogamous, and polyamorous relationships. Through Empowering Love, I provide couples therapy virtually throughout Oregon, including Portland, Beaverton, Salem, Eugene, Bend, Corvallis, Medford, and surrounding communities.
