The basic tenets of marital counseling are addressed in my couples therapy, including but not limited to: Communication, Problem-Solving, and Conflict-Resolution. In addition, I believe that each partner is responsible for his/her own choices and cannot, nor should not, try to change the other person. Inevitably, change occurs in the family system if one is working on his/her own issues and taking responsibility for his/her own actions. Therefore, as each person learns to experience the grace that God extends to him or her can he or she see the partner through God's eyes and be able to extend that grace to the partner as well, ultimately finding healing in their couple relationship.
