Great Couples Counseling in Columbine Valley, CO. Therapy to heal relationships.

I work with couples to increase responsiveness, trust, and intimacy in relationships. I help partners see how each of their behaviors impact and influence their partner's reactions and how the combination of these reactions lead to self-perpetuating cycles that continue to hurt the relationship. Together we work on skills to decrease blame and defensiveness, increase understanding and responsiveness, and create healing. Premarital counseling also available, and includes important research-based information and insight regarding how reasons for marrying may have implications for the success of the union.

It's natural for conflict and other issues to arise in a couple since you're two separate people with your own histories and upbringings coming together in relationship. The key is being able to self-regulate through difficult emotions, and communicate about what's happening effectively with your partner. When you can both stay calm, you'll be able to find new solutions to the issues that have come up in your relationship. I'm here to support you in identifying the issues causing conflict in your relationship, getting to the root of them, communicating effectively about them, and coming up with solutions that work.

I teach couples "Full Respect Living." This is Terry Real's term for mastering the skills of relational living. Some of the skills I will teach you are: 1) sustaining healthy self-esteem, 2) maintaining healthy boundaries, 3) living in moderation, 4) acting on behalf of the relationship, and 5) negotiating wisely. It is often the case that practicing these skills can help you turn around a deteriorating couple relationship very quickly. However, when repetitive harmful patterns are operating in the relationship, we will need to look more deeply. I will help you to understand and change the self-defeating patterns that you have brought from your childhood into the current situation

Building and maintaining a long-term healthy relationship is a learned skill that unfortunately may not have been modeled for many of us growing up; couples therapy can help you and your partner learn the skills necessary to understand and resolve relationship conflicts in a healthy way. In therapy, we can help you deal with tough issues, like persistent arguments or recovering from an affair while making sure both of you feel heard and respected. The process can also help you decide what to do next, what each partner wants, and how it might affect any children you have.

What are the most common couples' issues? If you are thinking "communication, conflict, sex, money, child rearing" you are correct. However, most therapists will go after the symptom on each side of the couple fence thinking that the way to effective change is by getting each party to "work" on their respective "issue". Many times the parties don’t agree but comply. Imagine if you could align the unconscious brains of a couple and stop the "working on your issues" part that has become so popular in therapy settings?

Our intimate relationships can be our greatest sources of joy and pain. When conflict and turmoil become overwhelming, it can be difficult to rediscover the connection and love that drew you together. By addressing past hurts and developing better understanding and relational skills, you can rekindle that sense of intimacy and connection that you desire in your relationship.

No matter the type of partnership or relationship you are in, they take attention and adaptation flourish. With all of the various priorities and obligations, sometimes our relationships take a back seat. My goal as a therapist is to reestablish connection by helping both partners learn more about themselves, their partner, the partnership, and defining how you both want to move forward with clarity and respect.

I work with dating couples, married couples, and family couples (mother/daughter & father/son). Together we work to find greater awareness in who we are in relationships. We look at our own personality and experiences, other's personalities and experiences, and the relationship created within that. We identify boundaries, expectations, styles of living and loving, along with other personality factors that all play a vital role in relationships. We learn to come together rather than pull apart through our differences.
