In addition to a MA in counseling from UAB, I also hold a post-master's certificate in Marriage and Family Therapy, a certificate in religious trauma, and I am an EMDR therapist, trained to treat trauma and PTSD through bilateral stimulation/eye movement for desensitization and reprocessing.
Things my clients often say: "I didn't think my problems were big enough for therapy ...I thought I just needed to try harder ...I had no idea talking to someone would help this much!" Therapy is not just for those with severe mental illness. Therapy is for the overwhelmed mom, still trying to recover from her own wounds. Therapy is for the person who "has it all", but is secretly sad most days. Therapy is for the high-achiever who battles anxiety and fears failure from the moment he opens his eyes. Therapy is for the couple who love each other but don't love their marriage.

God intends for us to be happy and content while the struggles of this world constantly attack the very foundation of our mental health. Things like intrusive thoughts of fear, jealously, inferiority, anger, mistrust, unforgiveness, and guilt rob us of our confidence and sense of wellbeing. Obsessive behavior or feelings of anxiety or depression can prevent or erode relationships that add so much to our lives. Healthy work relationships, marriage, and family relationships are all negatively or positively impacted by our perception. Our behavior will not change until our thinking changes. Why continue in pain when there is a relief.

Maybe you have such high anxiety that the idea of talking to anyone is overwhelming? If you have ADHD you might not be able to keep up with chores at home.

Marriage Counseling Therapists

How does marriage counseling work?

Marriage counseling works by teaching couples concrete skills to communicate with one another and solve disagreements in healthy ways. A trained mental health professional works with both members of a couple to explore difficulties the couple may be having and helps them develop skills to address these matters. Couples who don’t have any difficulties but want to prepare for marriage may develop skills for the future.

How long does marriage counseling typically last?

Marriage counseling is a short-term form of therapy; the process may last between four and eight sessions. Other forms of relationship guidance from mental health professionals, such as couples therapy, are longer lasting, may focus on the past rather than just the present, and are tailored to the individual couple and their emotions, history, and patterns in the relationship. Couples therapy often lasts for 12 weeks or longer.

Is marriage counseling effective?

Marriage counseling helps many couples develop relationship skills that may not have been acquired or tested in a relationship; partners may be better able to communicate and address conflict following counseling. However, there are many different forms of marriage counseling, and this form of counseling does not have as strong an evidence base as other modalities such as couples therapy.

Is marriage counseling effective if only one partner wants to go?

Yes, marriage counseling can still be effective if one partner convinces the other to engage in the process. Of course, whether counseling is effective depends on the couple’s commitment to work on their relationship; however, the short-term, skills-based nature of marriage counseling makes it a relatively easy “ask” of a partner, and the hesitant individual may see its value once counseling begins.
