You have friction in your relationship. You need help enhancing your connection and communication skills so you can set healthier and stronger boundaries. Maybe you're looking to get ahead of future problems before they start. It can be difficult making a change in your life, even one you want. Couples therapy is an opportunity to work on your relationship to feel closer, to build something that will last. It's also a place to understand why it just doesn't feel like it's working anymore. Come have a space to strengthen boundaries, healthy communication, and re-establish a partnership. Come try couples counseling.
I use humor, inquiry, and examples to learn about your relationship and help you understand your place in it. I’ll track the big picture as we examine and explore details of your life. We'll focus on reconnecting, building new skills, and decision making. Your relationship gets to be the client as you focus on collaborating on what's the next best decision.
Reaching out is big first step in feeling better. Asking for help is a powerful decision; we all need a little help from time to time. Searching for a therapist is about starting a relationship that can support you. Contact me and we'll see if I’m the right therapist for you. A no commitment conversation can be the first step towards you feeling better.
