Great Couples Counseling in North Belle Vernon, PA. Therapy to heal relationships.

Relationships can be wonderful, fulfilling, and even magical at times. They can also be frustrating, hurtful, and even maddening at times! My work with couples centers on modeling appropriate forms of communication and helping you to face the present and the future. If all you want to do is talk about the past--I'm probably not your guy. I'm interested in helping you to move forward, not to look back. I specialize in the use of humor to make the sessions more pleasant.

Couples therapy can be like inviting someone into your “home,” the special relational zone that you share with your significant other. Teletherapy can offer further enrichment to the therapeutic process, in addition to convenience factors. I strive to maintain a neutral and gentle perspective, helping you each observe and better manage your relational patterns of communion or disconnect. I can adapt my style to help you learn and practice new ways to empathize with your partner’s perspective, communicate effectively, resolve conflict and enjoy healthy connected-ness. I use tools such as the Myers-Briggs temperament styles, IMAGO techniques, and the Prepare-Enrich assessment survey.

Intimacy issues, libido irregularities, partner resentment, extra relational affairs and tendencies to cheat or indulge in non- beneficial behavior are released through hypnosis so that the partner's common goals can be engendered and programmed into the subconscious and unconscious mind. Pleasure that used to be derived from activities that went against the conscious mind of the clients are released through hypnotherapy, resulting in a better relationship dynamic and intrinsic understanding of the other for the clients concerned.

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?

Couples counseling is a type of therapy where a couple meets with a therapist to help them improve their relationship. My approach to couples counseling is to look at different areas of your relationship to determine what is missing from the relationship. Often when a relationship isn’t working, it’s because one or both partners aren’t getting their needs met. This can happen because there is a lack of communication or because they lack awareness about what their partner’s needs are or how to meet those needs. Either way, a discussion about what each person’s needs are and how they can be met will often resolve many problems in the relationship.
