On ‘Couples Therapy,’ They Discuss Intimacy Like Nobody’s Watching
The Showtime series gives audiences an intimate look inside real relationships. Its couples are still navigating the aftermath.

I cover breaking news related to the arts and culture. My work often involves reporting on civil lawsuits and criminal cases. I also write features and profiles about film, TV, theater, comedy and dance. I am drawn to stories that help readers understand the machinations behind the culture that they consume, including the ratings you see attached to movies, the dinosaur fossils you encounter at museums and the gunfire you watch in films and on television.
I started covering breaking news for The Times in 2018. Before that, I studied journalism at Northwestern University and contributed to Reuters and The Boston Globe. I grew up in the Chicago suburbs and currently live in Brooklyn.
As a journalist for The Times, I am committed to upholding the standards of integrity outlined in our Ethical Journalism Handbook. I do not take a personal position on the topics that I cover, and I strive to ensure that my stories properly represent different sides of an issue or a dispute. My goal, above all, is to bring transparency to issues that the public is interested in and to do so fairly.
