Marriage counseling that Heals in Stone Ridge, VA. Restore Your Relationship.

In couples or relationship therapy, I help clients learn skills to understand each other, resolve conflicts, and communicate effectively in order to find the love and strength that first brought them together, and to enhance intimacy, trust, satisfaction and love.

Like all psychotherapy, couples therapy is a process, but one in which I work to help both members of a partnership to feel heard while also working for measurable change that couples can notice and know when they are making progress.

We offer traditional marriage/couples counseling as well as marriage counseling for one! Yes, you can work on your marriage without your partner being present. It's no longer necessary to drag him into therapy :). It's time to get your relationship some help.

Though we are not licensed marriage counselors, Grey Matters International, Inc. provides cutting edge brain optimization and rebalancing technology to better align the minds of partners to reduce conflict, increase hope---for the brain has the final word on change.

After the spontaneous enchantment of “falling in love”, you and your mate go through predictable stages that require adjustment or result in stress. Find growing harmony and happiness by learning to negotiate for what you most deeply need and want.

My skill set and experience are built around helping couples to reconnect in even the most challenging of circumstances. Whether you are facing communication breakdowns, lost intimacy, an affair, or just relational exhaustion, I can help.

My approach employs: two cutting-edge diagnostic tools; addresses core issues not just surface ones; is goal & solutions-oriented; provides steps to rebuild your relationship; involves real-time changes not long-term therapy; focuses on reconciliation not treatment.

Marriage has the unique ability to bring out both the best and worst in us. My goal is to help you and your spouse support each other in refining yourselves so that you can help each other be the people you have potential to be!
