Ambivalent because you, or your spouse, aren’t sure you want to be married? No problem. I'm not talking about ordinary concerns about the relationship or even feeling in a stuck pattern—instead, I'm talking about worries about whether the marriage will survive. During this marital doubt phase, have you, or your spouse, asked about or even attended marriage counseling. This may be a great idea but did either of you actually come clean that you aren’t sure about the future of your marriage. Why? You, or they, are scared and not ready for a crisis. Right?

If you, or your spouse, are considering divorce but are not completely sure that’s the best path, you are in a tough spot. I can help you and your spouse decide whether to try to restore your marriage to health, move toward divorce, or take a time out and decide later. The goal is not to solve your marital problems but to see IF they are solvable.

I will listen with caring support but I will not take sides. I will not tell you to just accept the divorce nor will I tell you to just stay married. I will provide you, and your spouse, with constructive challenges to gain clarity and confidence about a direction, based on a deeper understanding of your relationship and its possibilities for the future.

I have had the privilege of working alongside Dr. Shawn Quintanilla for several years. Dr. Shawn's use of EMDR with sandtray is so beneficial for clients that are looking to address their symptoms, without the traditional talk therapy. I highly recommend!

I offer Discernment Counseling for married couples. I help you and your spouse gain clarity and confidence about a direction, based on a deeper understanding of your relationship and its possibilities for the future. You will come in as a couple but the most important work occurs in the one-to-one conversations with the counselor. Why? Because you are starting out in different places.
