COUPLES & FAMILIES
Couples and family counseling is more the norm than you may think. Even the strongest family unit can benefit from the support and guidance of a trained counselor when dealing with circumstances that can harm the relationship dynamic, including communication breakdown, financial hardship, death, depression, illness, infidelity, lack of intimacy, or unemployment.
​
Moreover, many couples considering marriage would benefit from premarital counseling to identify areas for relationship improvement and to ensure that both parties have a realistic understanding of the marital bond prior to the bliss of a wedding.
​
Whatever your circumstance may be - seriously dating, considering marriage, married with children or married seniors - I offer all couples an objective, safe space and tools to help you communicate better, enhance intimacy, and/or decide what is the next best step for your individual and family’s health and well-being.

My style is direct, and always compassionate and supportive. While no two couples are exactly alike, I find the use of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Imago Relationship Therapy, Structural Family Therapy, and/or Motivational Interviewing to work well in helping couples and families to improve and strengthen familial bonds.
