A committed relationship isn't always one in which marriage is involved. Couples therapy is an approach to help you to learn to listen to each other deeply. Intimacy, transparency, and vulnerability are key to your relationship success. In addition, learning to soothe yourself prior to your communication so that you can treat each other in new and supportive ways is helpful. Lastly, learning to have special regard to the uniqueness of your partner's needs can help your couple's relationship to succeed. (I am an ally and treat all couples.)

If you're part of a couple in distress, you may feel that there's no way out of your troubled relationship. Myths about the low success rates of couples therapy and counseling only make your situation seem worse than it is. Both types of therapy are structured, and the results of both are well documented, at least in follow-ups for a few years. Still, the entire field of couples therapy suffers from a systemic problem. The problem is real enough: couples often wait until very late in the game. Using Temperament Therapy, we can get the root of God's Plan for each of you and make decisions. based on His word.

Communication problems and intimacy issues can lead to a breakdown in connection between you and your partner. In counseling you will focus on healing through reconnecting with your partner by creating new, shared meanings about the relationship. Typically, clients rely on old assumptions about how to make a relationship work. These different perspectives often get in the way. Ultimately, your ability to be understanding and compassionate for your partner will improve your ability to communicate more effectively. Improved communication will lead to more openness, which will inevitably lead to greater intimacy and a more satisfying relationship.

There are countless models of healthy romantic relationships, from monogamous to polyamorous, and unique variations between partners. The scripts for dating and longterm relationships of our parents’ generations may not be applicable to your relationship, and there is no formal education in how to be a good partner or how to identify unhealthy relationships. But there is psychological research that shows that effective communication, emotional openness, intimacy, and other factors contribute to healthy relationships. Creating these conditions are skills that can be learned. I practice brief humanistic and emotion-focused therapy (EFT) to help my LGBTQ and hetero clients learn these skills.

Let me guess. One partner feels alone and like they don't matter and the other feels they are always being criticized and can't get anything right. The more one asks for the other to show up, the more the partner disappears physically and emotionally. You both bicker and fight and the idea of sitting and just hanging out seems elusive, if not impossible. Something like this? Often we crave connection but are blocked by the pain and the history that gets in the way. Small fights about little things become battles that highlight our struggle to have our basic relational needs met. I can help you get under the bickering to the parts crying out for connection- to an enriching 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?

Relationships can bring us to both the best of times and the worst. I am fascinated by exploring and growing behaviors and patterns that make relationships work, while also creating a space to explore and process times that have been hurtful or potentially where someone has been left feeling betrayed. As a therapist, I am committed to creating a space that feels non judgmental and accepting as couples therapy typically brings with it many difficult topics of discussion. Navigating a relationship is no easy feat, even for people who have years of experience. Having a couples therapist who is comfortable exploring new areas and patterns in relationship can be invaluable
