Marriage counseling that Heals in Jenkintown, PA. Restore Your Relationship.

Couples enter therapy for help with conflict, affairs, intimacy and communication problems. My approach to couples counseling uses the researched-based Gottman Method Couples Therapy techniques which help couples learn how to handle conflict and increase intimacy.

The Gottman therapy method will give you specific tools to deepen friendship and intimacy, to manage conflicts and “resolvable problems” and dialogue about “gridlocked” ones. I provide a safe and caring place to work on these problems toward a successful relationship.

I'm the author of the book, "Divorce Proof Your Marriage Before You Say 'I Do' - Seven Essential Conversations." While it's always best to identify and address potential problems BEFORE marriage, most of us don't. Never fear. There's still hope!
