Couples Counseling

Do you keep having the same fight over and over again without resolution?

Are you tolerating the intolerable?

Are you ready to give up on your marriage or relationship?

Are you living in resentment in your relationship?

Do you simply want to learn the skills to have a healthy relationship?

As a Master Certified Relational Life Therapist, I know that every relationship is a cycle of Harmony, Disillusionment and Repair.  I can help you:

  • Develop a relationship in which you are cherished and cherishing

  • Move from resentment to harmony

  • Learn the repair process needed to work through relationship issues

  • Learn to speak to your partner in a way that will be heard

  • Identify self-defeating behaviors in relationship and learn winning strategies

  • Address issues from childhood which negatively impact current relationships

  • Develop healthy relationship skills

 

As a Master Certified Relational Life Therapist, what makes me different from a traditional Couples Therapist?

  • I get to the heart of issues, by addressing problems directly.

  • I don’t believe couples can be helped by being neutral.  Instead, I join couples with the truth about what is damaging the relationship.

  • I recognize that behaviors are the problem, not simply communication.

  • My focus is on Full Respect Living –respect being the minimum of love.

  • I teach couples the skills needed to be truly intimate.

  • I recognize and treat issues from childhood which impact adult relationships.

My credentials include:

  • Counseling couples since 2003

  • Certification as a Master Certified Relational Life Therapist

  • Faculty of the Relational Life Institute since 2006

  • Development and facilitation of “Relationships 101”

  • Proprietor and Co-Director of Relational Life Mastery and Coaching

  • Coaching therapists internationally as part of their training in Relational Life Therapy and mastery of living a relational life.

Unlike the neutrality of traditional couples therapy, Relational Life Therapy gets to the heart of relationship issues, addressing problems directly and teaching couples to be truly intimate.  Family of origin issues that impact relationships are also addressed.
