Welcome to the Relationship Space
As a Couples and Relationship Coach, I help individuals and couples build stronger, lasting relationships with research-backed tools and guidance.
Maybe your relationship feels disconnected, tense, or uncertain. You might struggle to communicate, rebuild trust, or make a big decision. Or perhaps you want to improve your relationships but aren’t sure how to start the conversation. This is a space to pause, reflect, and move forward with proven tools.Whether you’re looking to strengthen your relational skills or a couple wanting to reconnect, my approach combines practical strategies with deeper exploration of patterns and needs. I use some of the most trusted methods in relational work:
• The Gottman Method, which offers practical, research-based tools for stronger communication and connection;
• Relational Life Therapy (RLT), helping individuals and couples break free from stuck patterns and build more honest, balanced, and loving relationships.
• Prepare/Enrich pre-marital assessment, providing a structured, research-backed way for couples to explore compatibility, expectations, and strengths before marriage.Here, you’ll find guidance to build stronger relationships, communicate with clarity, and navigate change with confidence.
About Vi
I’m French-Vietnamese and have lived in Asia for 20 years—first in China and now in Jakarta. My career began in corporate consulting and diplomacy, before I chose to focus on family, social impact, and helping people strengthen relationships.My cross-cultural lens helps me understand the unique pressures expats face, the dynamics of mixed couples, and the experiences of Indonesians shaped by life abroad. I know how cultural expectations, distance from family, and differing worldviews can strain relationships—and how, with the right approach, they can also become opportunities for deeper connection.I am trained in The Gottman Method, Relational Life Therapy (RLT), Prepare/Enrich. This combination gives me a versatile toolkit to support individuals and couples, whether the focus is practical communication, intimacy skills, or deeper relational patterns.My approach is grounded in evidence-based strategies, cultural sensitivity, and the belief that meaningful, deep lasting change is always possible.

Frequently Asked Questions
What languages do you offer support in?
I offer relationship support services in English and French only.Where do you practice?
I currently see clients online and in person in South Jakarta.Who do you work with?
I work with couples at all stages of their relationships. You don’t need to be married or in crisis—many come simply to strengthen their connection, grow together, or improve their relational skills.I also work with individuals who want support in their relational life. Some are single and want to understand recurring patterns in their relationships, others are navigating a breakup or divorce, and some simply want to build healthier communication, intimacy, and boundaries in future partnerships.I welcome everyone in a safe, respectful, and non-judgmental space—regardless of sexual orientation, relationship structure, culture, or background. Everyone deserves support in navigating their relationships, and you will be met with kindness, confidentiality, and care.How long are sessions?
The first session is 90 minutes, giving us time to get to know your story and goals. After that, sessions are usually 60 minutes.For those who want to move more quickly or go deeper in their work, I also offer extended sessions (2-3 hours). We can discuss what pace and format feel most supportive for your relationship.Do you offer assessments for couples preparing for big life transitions? (marriage, parenthood, international move)
Yes. I use structured tools such as Prepare-Enrich to help couples navigate important milestones with confidence and connection.While many people think of these assessments as “pre-marital,” they’re also ideal for other major transitions — like becoming parents, making an international move, or taking any step that reshapes your relationship.These sessions aren’t only about assessment or problem-solving: they’re a chance to understand each other more deeply, strengthen your bond, and gain tools to support one another. Many couples find the process not only valuable, but also surprisingly enriching and enjoyable.Is couple work worth the time and money?
It’s natural to wonder if the investment is worth it. I invite you to also consider the cost of not doing this work: the financial and emotional toll of separation, the impact on children, or the weight of living in relationships that feel unfulfilling. Relational coaching is not just about avoiding pain — it’s about building skills and creating a foundation for more connection, resilience, and joy in your life.I want to work on my relationship, but my partner isn’t interested. How can I convince them?
It’s common for one partner to be hesitant and it can feel frustrating. You don’t need to wait for your partner to start making changes. You can begin with an individual session, where we can clarify your goals, explore your needs, and discuss ways to invite your partner into the process if appropriate.
And is this the same as therapy with a psychologist or psychotherapist?
Our sessions may feel similar to talk therapy: we’ll explore recurring patterns, family-of-origin dynamics, and the beliefs that shape how you show up in your relationship. The goal is not only to address today’s conflicts, but to uncover what drives them — so you can create lasting change together.As a professional trained in the Gottman Method and Relational Life Therapy (RLT), my role is also to actively guide you, teach practical skills, and provide actionable tools you can apply right away to strengthen your relationship beyond our sessions.I do not diagnose or provide clinical treatment. If at any point I believe therapy with a psychologist would be more appropriate, I will let you know.I’ve never done anything like this before — what if I don’t know where to start?
That’s completely okay. You don’t need to have the “right words” or a clear goal. We’ll start wherever you are, and go at a pace that feels safe for you.Do you offer group workshops?
Yes! I love working with groups and creating spaces where people can grow together. In Jakarta, I offer workshops for couples and individuals who want to deepen connection and strengthen relational skills, as well as for companies that value healthier, more collaborative workplaces. If you’re interested, feel free to reach out to me directly.Partnerships with Non-Profits
I believe that relationship support should be accessible to everyone. Alongside my private practice, I welcome opportunities to collaborate with non-profit organizations. This may include offering pro bono sessions, workshops, or tailored support for communities in need.
If you are part of a non-profit and would like to explore working together, please feel free to reach out.
