Feeling anxious about your relationship ? Does it feel like the two of you are living parallel lives? Are you asking "What has happened to us?" We get so busy building our dreams, making sacrifices to advance our careers, balancing work & family commitments; that we grow apart, instead of closer together. Sometimes resentment, feelings of neglect or relational trauma seem to sneak back in, just when you thought it was resolved. But if you can't talk about it, without it blowing up, how do you make it better? You're committed, but lifetime of just "existing" without physical & emotional intimacy is NOT what you want.

People do not fit in perfect little boxes, nor should treatment be tailored to a "one size fits all " approach. Everyone is different and unique. I believe it is important to find creative and healthy ways to help children, teens, adults, couples and their families to solve problems and move forward in their lives.

I work with teens & adult clients with a variety of concerns, including anxiety, depression, self-esteem & interpersonal/ relationship issues.
With the pressures we face on a daily basis, it can be hard to feel like we are doing more than just treading water. Whether it’s conflict at home, stress and issues with friends or relationships, crazy high anxiety, feeling depressed or numb, or just wanting to feel more content with life, it is never easy to feel like you have to deal with it all by yourself. We can work together to explore those issues in a comfortable, supportive environment, determine your goals for yourself and together create ways to manage the stress, anxiety or overall crappy feelings keeping you from enjoying life.

Couples Counseling Therapists

Does couples counseling work?

Research shows that couples counseling is effective; it can reduce relationship distress and improve emotional awareness, communication, empathy, intimacy, and overall relationship satisfaction. For example, emotionally focused therapy was found to be effective for about 75 percent of couples, and those benefits lasted at least two years.

When should a couple seek counseling?

Couples can benefit from counseling if they consistently struggle in their relationship. They may have lost the ability to communicate effectively, become entrenched in harmful patterns, begun to fight more than usual, broken the other’s trust, suffered from a mental or physical illness, or faced any number of other challenges. Many therapists offer free consultations, so if a couple isn’t sure whether therapy is necessary, asking directly can provide clarity.

How can I get my partner to go to couples therapy?

The decision to seek couples therapy is often driven by one partner, who then convinces the other to participate. When discussing the idea, the initiator should be direct and assertive. They can state the problems they see and explain how the relationship would benefit from therapy. In more serious cases, they can also explain how their relationship may suffer without making any changes or seeking professional help.

How does a couple prepare for couples counseling?

The anticipation of beginning couples counseling can be difficult—sometimes more difficult than the first session itself. Taking a few moments to reflect can allay those concerns: What are the current challenges? When and how did they begin? What do they want the relationship to look like in the future? Reflecting on these questions can help individuals or couples articulate their goals. Of course, the therapist will also ask questions and guide couples through the process.
