"Negative intense emotions can affect our daily lives if we allow them to. These emotions can be anger, shame, guilt, or sadness. It can leave us feeling down and overwhelmed causing anxiety and may drive us to behave in ways we normally wouldn't. Sometimes it may be difficult for couples and families to relate to each other when issues of life get in the way or when one may not believe the other understands. My focus is to help couples and families to connect emotionally while developing skills to communicate, validate, and understand each other."
