Great Couples Counseling in Milford, NJ. Therapy to heal relationships.

Not all couples are married, but many couples still have the same problems as married people do such as communication, intimacy, recovering from affairs and how to move forward . I use the research-based tools from the Gottman Couples Therapy Method to help couples who are struggling with issues relating to their relationship and how to progress to the next level.

You fell in love with your partner, enjoyed the heady first days of the relationship, but staying in love is difficult. Your relationship isn't what it was or you want, you "can't seem to get it right", or even start. The "happily ever after" fairy tale has soured. You can reauthor your story - you know life is not a fairy tale, but the real tale is far more interesting. Therapy is not about being broken, sick or wrong. It's about growth, courage & moving forward. You can learn practical skills to create an authentic loving relationship which includes passion & intimacy as well as caring & communication. It is exciting & joyful to rediscover your feelings for each other.

Many couples experience conflict in their marriage. Stressors such as dual-career families, raising children and adolescents and blended families are sometimes very difficult and challenging. Communication, trust and compromise are at the heart to a healthy marriage. Marriage counseling offers couples the opportunity to learn and grow individually, as well as as a couple. Counseling sessions provide a safe and supportive environment to learn more effective ways of communicating and working together as life partners.

Couples counseling is my specialty, and what I most enjoy doing. I am Pro-Marriage, and work hard to help couples who want to stay together learn how to do so. I have completed Level 3 of training in Gottman Couples Therapy which utilizes a well-researched system of technique that can help couples move on from affairs, lack of intimacy and stale parallel marriages. The sessions are very interactive with the focus on processing present struggles, and re-examining past stumbling blocks to explore alternative ways to behave with each other. Couples are always seen together so that there is no story-telling and the focus is on the couple in a fair and balanced way.

If you are struggling with your most significant relationship, whether you are dating or have been married for years, I can give you tools that will help you love each other well. We all have needs and understanding those needs, ours or our partners will enable us to focus on getting those needs met. When our needs are met we are happier and our relationships flourish. When we invite God into the healing process there is no limit to what He can do. Let me help improve your relationship today.

Marriage is a commitment that we make expecting to last a life time. However, our expectations, belief systems and poor communication styles can break our hearts and leave us lonely, hurt and bitter wondering if the relationship can be saved. Using Logo Therapy, you will learn new ways of communicating, review expectations, change belief systems and learn to have a safe, fun and fulfilling relationship,

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?
