Marriage Counseling

I understand that for most couples, therapy is not only a financial investment but also one of time.  With this investment, it is important that couples feel like they are quickly getting to the root of their relationship struggles, and do not end up feeling stuck with recurring conflicts in their therapist's office. One of my main objectives in marriage counseling and couples therapy is to get to the core of the issues, helping couples name the dynamic and identify their role in the problem. This allows us to work on rebuilding healthier relational patterns, arming you with tools for more effective communication, and a deeper connection in your relationship.

​

I offer therapy for couples who may be on the brink of divorce due to infidelity or disconnection, as well as couples who are struggling with many different life adjustments, such as having a new baby, adjusting to a spouse changing careers, or navigating the empty nest when children leave the home.  I work with couples in all stages of their relationships, from premarriage and newly married, to couples who are in a second marriage, all the way to couples who are in their retirement years. 

 

My specialty areas in marriage counseling and relationship counseling: 

Infidelity & Affair Recovery

Infidelity & Affair Recovery

Going through the trauma of infidelity is one of the most difficult things a couple can endure.  Following the discovery of an emotional affair or physical affair, it is important for the long term health of the marriage to find a healthy way of navigating the betrayal as soon as possible.  I help couples who are struggling with infidelity work through the pain of betrayal, understand what happened, learn how to rebuild trust and affair-proof with boundaries to protect your marriage in the future.  My goal is to help you move through the process in a healthy way and restore trust and hope for your future together.

Navigating Separation or Divorce

Navigating Separation or Divorce

I help couples navigate the separation or divorce process in the healthiest way possible for their family and learn to effectively co-parent during and after. Unfortunately, many kids end up caught in the turmoil of a separating or divorcing couple.  My goal is to help you prevent this by helping you create a safe and healthy co-parenting dynamic.

Marital Disconnection & Conflict

Marital Disconnection & Conflict

Are you feeling like strangers in your marriage?  Are you feeling alone, unheard and unknown to your spouse?  Do you struggle with communicating, and feel as though the only time you talk to each other, the communication is distant, defensive, or conflictual?  I am passionate about helping you define where the disconnection has taken place, learn your needs in the relationship and communicate those needs in a healthy way that nurtures your marriage, while preserving your individuality. I help couples learn how to attain a healthier balance of roles and equality in the marriage, how to have greater awareness of your spouses needs, how to truly hear each other,  and love one another in a deeper and more meaningful way that creates connection.
