relationship

New coping skills can help you see yourself and your relationships differently, new brain techniques can help resolve old traumas, and current research can bring understanding. It's never too late to look at your life differently and change what's happening in your world.

Life is difficult. All of us are faced with stress, pain, loss, and feeling out of control in our lives. Sometimes, even the strongest people you know need a little bit of help to work through life’s more difficult problems. You may be experiencing some of your own life’s challenges and feel you have done all you can to cope, yet find things are not changing or improving. You may not know exactly where to go for help, who the best person would be to talk to, or what to expect from therapy. These are normal questions and concerns. All of us here at New Beginnings Counseling Group want to reassure you…You are in the right place!

What if you could feel close and accepted by your
partner
, or more confident about your own purpose and place in the world? You deserve to have full, loving relationships.
Do you have a strong desire to fully love and be loved?Do you find that something always gets in the way of healthy relationships, whether that’s with romantic partners or friends and family?Maybe you have a
partner
, but find that you’re always fighting or keeping your distance from each other. Perhaps you feel lost and alone, without purpose or meaning in the world.Many people I work with have struggled with distracting behaviors, like sex or porn issues, which are really about anxiety and a fear of true connection. I help people overcome challenges, so they can find loving connections with themselves, with others, and their faith.

I strive to be
relationship
focused in all I do as a counselor, even in my individual work. I believe the research and have observed how loneliness hurts: we thrive when connected and struggle when isolated. I utilize EFT and the Gottman Method with
couples
; I focus on family work with children because individual play therapy is often unhelpful, in the long-term; Filial Play Therapy and PCIT are my favorites models for parents with their children. I utilize ACT and Arbinger principles in most of my work. I foster connections with my clients but especially between clients and their people, including their spiritual Connection.

With all the financial, climate,
relationship
, and other uncertainties people face right now, there is a tendency to become overwhelmed.
People who choose traditional methods are often not able to make significant progress even after years of therapy because they focus on symptoms and coping/suppressing/denying their emotions. My clients tried EMDR, talk therapy, CBT, and others but continued to struggle to resolve their anger, sadness, fear, numbness, negative self talk, broken relationships and isolation. I use legal psychedelic medicines (cannabis and ketamine) with a patent pending somatic processing technique (SLIP) to facilitate the healing of deep emotional, attachment, and core belief wounds. Most, within 3 months are living the best lives they ever have.

Couples Counseling Therapists
Does couples counseling work?
Research shows that couples counseling is effective; it can reduce relationship distress and improve emotional awareness, communication, empathy, intimacy, and overall relationship satisfaction. For example, emotionally focused therapy was found to be effective for about 75 percent of couples, and those benefits lasted at least two years.
When should a couple seek counseling?
Couples can benefit from counseling if they consistently struggle in their relationship. They may have lost the ability to communicate effectively, become entrenched in harmful patterns, begun to fight more than usual, broken the other’s trust, suffered from a mental or physical illness, or faced any number of other challenges. Many therapists offer free consultations, so if a couple isn’t sure whether therapy is necessary, asking directly can provide clarity.
How can I get my partner to go to couples therapy?
The decision to seek couples therapy is often driven by one partner, who then convinces the other to participate. When discussing the idea, the initiator should be direct and assertive. They can state the problems they see and explain how the relationship would benefit from therapy. In more serious cases, they can also explain how their relationship may suffer without making any changes or seeking professional help.
How does a couple prepare for couples counseling?
The anticipation of beginning couples counseling can be difficult—sometimes more difficult than the first session itself. Taking a few moments to reflect can allay those concerns: What are the current challenges? When and how did they begin? What do they want the relationship to look like in the future? Reflecting on these questions can help individuals or couples articulate their goals. Of course, the therapist will also ask questions and guide couples through the process.
