Do you and your spouse constantly struggle with communication? Are you increasingly losing connection with him or her? Are your interactions becoming more negative? Has there been an affair? These are warning signs of a relationship in trouble and possibly on the road to failure. I specialize in helping couples identify and modify these unhealthy relational patterns and reconnect as a couple. For many couples, so much bitterness and resentment has built up, they initially feel their marriage is beyond help. However, if a couple will work through these emotions, seek forgiveness and learn new ways of interacting, they can begin to rebuild their relationship.
I counsel from a systems perspective. I work with the couple to see how they are each contributing to the problem and how they both can be a part of the solution. For those couples that request it, I am able to integrate Christian beliefs and values with their counseling.
I have over 25 years experience working in the mental health field. My training includes a masters degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and a Bachelors in psychology. I am passionate about the work I do and the long term positive effects it can have for couples and their families.
