You love each other, but you’re tired of your relationship or marriage feeling so hard all the time. You can’t seem to do anything right. No matter how many times you try to bring up the issues, you walk away feeling unheard or misunderstood. Sometimes you wonder if your partner really cares. You feel like you carry the weight of the household, the kids, the family, but there is nothing left for you. Often you feel criticized, so you shut down and stop trying. Fights never get resolved because life gets busy. And you are starting to wonder if this marriage/relationship is worth it. You just want to feel close again.
I help individuals and couples who still have love in their hearts, but don’t know how to overcome the pain and conflict. My approach is both gentle and direct. I create a safe space where my clients can feel and express their pain. I help them learn how to communicate in ways that bring their partner closer instead of pushing them away.
Over time, my clients experience change in therapy and begin to feel more confident in expressing their needs and wants and they begin to feel a stronger connection with their partner. For over 25 years, I have worked with people who struggle in their relationships. Clients often say therapy provided relief and a ray of hope. This can be you.
