I know how awful it feels when your most important relationships aren't working. For some it just feels like you can't even talk anymore without a fight. It's easy to feel bad about yourself when things aren't going right in your relationships. Nothing feels right or good.
What I do know is that no relationship is perfect all the time and relationships do go through seasons of stress and difficulty. It's very easy to get overwhelmed with the demands of life and relationships.
I also know that often with some new strategies things can turn around relatively quickly within a relationship. With some of the communication techniques that I've taught individuals and couples, they are reporting to me that they are once again finding a newness and fun in their relationships. They once again are experiencing a joyful, vibrant realtionship. There's hope.
It's a big step to reach out for help. However, I also know it means you're hurting. I provide counseling within a caring, safe, supportive environment that lends itself to you getting the help you need. I'd love to hear your story and together we can figure this out.
What can you expect from counseling?
Everyone's situation is different. While some may require only a few sessions, others may require deeper, more intensive help to get to the root causes that can create lasting results.
Often clients report feeling worse before better, but most clinical studies suggest that counseling is useful in producing meaningful and lasting change, which with effort and insight can be sustained.
Counseling takes effort and possibly some discomfort. I may ask you to look at some issues or areas of your life or your relationship that may be difficult and you may experience some emotions that feel awkward and perhaps overwhelming. My goal is to help you in approaching the task of growth with a minimum of any unnecessary pain. I will inform you if a particular approach, strategy, or intervention has the likelihood of causing undue distress.
For the effort or any discomfort you may experience in counseling, you may increase your insight into your actions or motives and have a greater freedom and choice in the way you relate to others and yourself. As a result of counseling, many report they experience increased success in their lives, marriages, family relationships, and/or their professional pursuits.
I will treat you with respect and honesty throughout the course of your treatment. I will provide you with quality therapeutic services in a way that will best address your needs and concerns. You will receive quality services without bias to gender, race, creed, age, or sexual orientation.
Can Counseling help my marriage?
Yes, counseling can help your marriage.
Studies have proven that most marriages are enhanced by marriage counseling. Couples benefit from an objective third party partnering with them when they face into their issues and learn new and effective ways to be in and have a healthy relationship.
Marriage is not only the most difficult of all relationships, but it is also the most rewarding and satisfying when it is healthy and well taken care of. A good marriage takes work.
If you do not feel physically well, you seek the services of a medical doctor. When things are hurting in your marriage, such as unmet needs and expectations, or not knowing how to resolve your conflicts effectively, or you experience difficulty in communicating or connecting with each other, then you seek the services of a professional marriage and family counselor to help you improve your marriage. I am a licensed marriage and family therapist.
Do both partners in a relationship have to come to counseling?

Do both partners in a relationship have to come to counseling?
No.
Studies reveal that a marriage or any relationship can improve even when only one party is working on the relationship in counseling.
Many individuals have come when their partner has chosen not to come. As a result, they have found new ways to be in the relationship. They personally learn and develop better relationship skills in counseling. Oftentimes their partner then becomes interested and chooses to join in the counseling process at that point.

I believe all relationships have difficulties, but no relationship has to be defined or controlled by these difficulties. We all have the capacity to grow within relationships and to change what is not working and further develop what is working. Everyone can learn to implement new ways of being within a relationship. Just as difficulties arise in a relationship, so does healing occur within a relationship. There is hope for all relationships. You and your family members are your most important treasure and counseling is a significant investment you can make for yourself and those your love.
