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 and boundaries are the key to any healthy relationship! Whether best friends, mother/daughter, co-workers, ex spouses. Learn how to take the emotion out of communicating truth in a respectful and appropriate manner and find incredible peace in your life. Expectations of other people's behavior is toxic.

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.

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.

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.
