You live together but you're distant, isolated, and lonely under the same roof. Hostility infects all corners of your home. Infertility has taken its toll. Infidelity is a severe breach of commitment and trust. Healthy, positive and rewarding sexuality is not part of your couple life. Parenting exacts its price. You contemplate divorce or separation but you're unsure that's the right path. Nearly every couple faces challenges. The difficulties can get so overwhelming they can make both of you feel helpless and directionless. In our stress filled, anxiety-driven lives it helps to talk with a professional about your relationship.

Are you going through a life transition such as divorce , immigration, breakup, grief, job loss, parenting stress, or just simply weighed down? What’s keeping you awake at night? Sometimes one just needs to talk to someone who understands. Regardless of your circumstances, a fulfilling life is still possible. Let's work together to get there.

We all have times when we feel overwhelmed by unexpected changes in our family life, relationships, careers or health - times when strong emotions are difficult to manage alone.
