I have completed Level 1 training in the Gottman Method. I use this approach when working with couples. I begin with the Gottman Assessment, which consists of more than 300 questions. This assessment provides information such as relationship satisfaction, communication styles, viewpoints on whether you feel known by your partner, trust, infidelity issues, commitment levels, and much more. The assessment provides a roadmap of the journey towards improving communication and the friendship with your spouse.

As summer winds down and the back-to-school season kicks into high gear, many families find themselves faced with a surge of stress. From starting new routines to managing academic pressures, this time of year can be particularly challenging. For parents, the strain of these changes often exacerbates existing tensions in relationships, highlighting the importance of maintaining a strong, communicative partnership. This is where couples counseling, particularly through convenient virtual therapy services, can make a significant difference.

We specialize in couples counseling. Our approach is one which acknowledges the emotional aspect of both individuals. We listen intently and provide a critical analysis so that all involved have a clear understanding of the issue and where there is possible miscommunication. We have found that there are typically areas in which both individuals can improve, and we focus on where those areas of improvement are needed. We also understand the delicate nature of couples counseling in that each is typically passionate in their own beliefs. We are very skilled communicators in getting buy in to where personal growth is needed.

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?

Navigating marriage and intimate relationships can be a complex journey because they are shaped by our individual life experiences, our unique personalities, and our hopes, desires, and expectations, which can sometimes clash as the years pass. This doesn’t mean you can’t turn things around and rediscover the love and joy you used to have! Most of us were not given the tools to engage and nurture our roles as spouses, partners, lovers, and parents in a healthy way. This is where I step in to offer my support. I am here to help you sort through the challenges and uncover the hidden strengths within yourselves with the goal of injecting joy to create healing and connection with your partner.

“Stop trying to change me!” The complaint often targeted at a partner during a heated discussion. My response, in couples therapy, is often, “Of course you are being asked to change.” Allow me to explain… In relationships, we go from “I” and “you” to “we”. As “we”, we become better people; hopefully. We have a responsibility to ourselves and to the relationship. The intention is to not “lose ourselves” in a relationship, however, a healthy partnership challenges growth and change. In couples therapy, my approach is to target areas of growth, and yes, change, for the individual and couple. The “change” is discussed, agreed, and mutually beneficial.

Marriage is a beautiful gift, in which we experience a love that fills the depths of our heart and soul. But even the best relationships can experience conflict and distress. Couples need some essential skills to successfully work through their issues, such as communication, understanding, the ability to compromise, gratitude for one another, shared goals and a vision for the future of the relationship, understanding how you give and receive love, and more. We will help you identify what's at the root of your conflict and develop the skills to overcome it. Looking for marriage enrichment? Let's focus on the above things but also deepen your emotional, physical, and spiritual intimacy.

Many couples seek counseling when they are experiencing conflict in their relationship. The most common reasons couples come to counseling is due to difficulity in communication, money and intimacy. Most of us learn to communicate by watching our own parents who may not have been the best teachers. I teach couples the common styles of communication (ie. often one person want to work out the issue immediately and the other person needs time to think and process the situation which can lead to distress). I help couples learn to communicate in a way that they can be heard and understood. Communication is also key to express intimacy needs and to get them met in a way that is mutually satisfying

I facilitate constructive and open dialogues to strengthen relationships. Through effective communication strategies and conflict resolution techniques, I guide couples in addressing issues and enhancing emotional connection. My goal is to help partners rediscover shared goals, improve mutual understanding, and cultivate a healthier and more fulfilling partnership.
