My most common client is someone wanting to work on their marriage/intimate relationship. These clients typically feel frustrated, unheard, and anxious about the state of their partnership. Many don’t know how to achieve change in their marriage or what healthy/fair expectations would look like. Although the most common goal for my clients is to save their marriage or mend a broken connection, sometimes they specifically need help leaving a relationship that no longer serves them.
Common issues I work with include concerns about ongoing relationship conflict, frustration with a spouse, difficulties finding resolution in arguments, parenting disagreements, an impending/recent separation or divorce, and being in a relationship with a partner with mental health struggles or addiction.
I believe it's essential to understand your past and how it influences you (and your relationships) today. I help clients look at specific life patterns and habits/behaviors that are holding them back. We may also look at your partner's history in an effort to understand the larger picture.
