About Couples Counseling

I will help you and your partner, not only to identify and clarify the issues, but also to develop a plan that addresses each problem step-by-step, one that supports you in creating the kind of relationship you want.

It doesn’t matter how big or small the problems are, if they’ve been there for a while, or if the relationship is basically good, but something has just come up.

You may simply need someone to help you sort it out and decide on the direction you want to take.

Consulting with a relationship professional is a wise step to take, especially if your relationship is at stake or if you are in a crisis.

I will help you make the all important turn toward finding solutions. You will have a neutral place to express yourselves, to be heard, and ultimately to develop key relationship skills that will help you now and in the future.

I will gently guide you through any anger, pain or disappointment so that we spend most of our time building a relational framework and environment that is loving, stimulating and able to thrive no matter what comes your way.

Even the smallest steps you take can lead to rebuilding trust and re-creating the intimacy you once shared.

No matter how pessimistic you may feel now, countless couples have told me that counseling helped them:
a) Identify the real nature of the relational problems
b) Come to see those problems as fixable, and
c) Learn tools to resolve them.

In the future, when you look back, it may be hard to believe that you once saw only two equally painful options - sticking it out or calling it quits.

I want to guide you and your partner in developing a bond that is even stronger and more nurturing than it was when you started out.
