COUPLE COUNSELING

When it seems you are becoming more hurt, angrier, or more distant from the the most important person in your life, it is likely that your relationship could benefit from professional help.

Should you decide to get that help from me, I will, from the first session, try to make the counseling sessions safe enough for each of you to share any and all feelings that might be stirred by your partner's words or non-verbal behavior. I will also work toward throwing light on and changing how you communicate your most vulnerable feelings with one another.

As therapy progresses, we will explore increasingly how various hurtful events from childhood and other previous relationships seem to be priming either of you to experience undue pain or to respond to your partner in a destructive manner. In most cases, focus on difficulties in communicating feelings, while examining age-old relational patterns, results in couples finding new and more rewarding ways to reestablish emotional intimacy with one another.

I hope these few words will provide you with some ideas as to how relationship therapy might work. However, it is the experience of engaging in actual counseling sessions that will give you the most reliable information regarding whether this process might really help you reestablish that deeper and more intimate connection you long for.
