Are you feeling discouraged because you and your partner are caught in a cycle of negativity? Are you wondering how you can restore the romance and sense of connection with your partner? Are you and your partner struggling to cope with a serious medical problem? I am a certified Imago Relationship Therapist who has helped many couples find their way back to connection. I offer couples a safe, comfortable place to explore feelings, examine behavioral patterns and learn new ways to cope and reconnect. I am particularly experienced with couples dealing with a serious illness in one or both partners.
I believe in the power of an authentic therapeutic relationship to create opportunities for growth and healing. As each person, and each couple is unique, I tailor my approach to fit the individual needs of my clients. I am a seasoned clinician with over 25 years of experience and specialize in working with those coping with chronic medical problems.
Taking the first step to making a change in your life can seem overwhelming and scary, but you don't have to take that step alone. I am here to help you begin a journey toward a more meaningful and joyful life.
Take the first step to help. Call or Catherine Pennello now - (631) 250-6089
