Couples often struggle with many relationship issues all at the same time. Marriage counseling can only go so far without having choices on how to move forward. Let's begin with these options: Starting fresh with new skills and approaches to being a couple. Making amends and forgiveness. Exploring your family culture and what you bring into your relationship. Restructuring, uncoupling, separation, or compassionate divorce. We'll discuss the main options and together agree upon the focus of our work moving forward. I take an integrated approach to working with couples which has been informed by many master clinicians.
My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and nonjudgmental. I have developed the experience working with married, committed, or dating couples in distress using a structured approach that combines education, coaching and counseling and is based on the latest research on what makes couples succeed or fail.
With 29 years of extensive experience helping couples who are motivated to improve their relationship and learn out how to stay together, I offer complete privacy, a flexible schedule, short wait times, online counseling. Just give me a call. I'd like to hear from you to help you get started.

Virtual Couples Case Consultation

I now offer virtual couples case consultation. Discussing cases that are as complex as couples work is essential for even the most experienced clinicians. This case consultation will be for therapists who work with couples and want to discuss couples therapy cases only. For 1:1 couples case consultation I have immediate availability but if there is enough interest I would consider starting another group in September. Feel free to email me: CouplesCounselingToday@gmail.com if you have any questions then we would set up a brief call or virtual meeting to ensure we are good fit moving forward.
