Relationship/couples therapy strengthens bonds involved in interpersonal relationships. If you are concerned about communication, misunderstanding, conflict or lack of connection, help is available. You can seek support that will help you improve you closeness, depth and connection. You can learn skills that will allow you to communicate in a safe, trusting and loving way that will help with conflict resolution and improve your mental, emotional and physical intimacy. It is not necessary to have a troubled relationship to seek counseling. Couples counseling can include couples or families of all configurations to achieve more satisfaction and healthy attachments in romantic and family relationships. Couple and family therapy also includes premarital counseling, divorce or separation counseling and relationship counseling for couples navigating ethical non-monogamy or polyamory.

Our Counseling Philosophy
Unlike the “medical-model” or “disease model” that the majority of mental health clinicians and medical doctors adhere to; I utilize a personal growth and brain-based model in working with clients. the personal growth model strives to remove pathology from the human condition. Psychotherapy deals with the social, mental, and emotional aspects of individuals, couples and families. Within the personal growth model, the individual is referred to as a client because the individual is perceived to have areas of strength and resources that need to be cultivated to address their areas of self-improvement and to establish new patterns of social behavior.
Operating from a personal growth model requires that therapists are client-centered and focus on client needs and utilize approaches that will result in desired change. The goal is to empower clients by teaching them skills and strategies that will allow them to have victory over their concerns and to have a meaningful existence. The objective is to teach clients to be proactive about their lives, self-sufficient and establish a healthy interdependence. It is my intention that clients leave therapy feeling confident to address their concerns because they have established a healthy mental and emotional frame of mind and have been equipped with effective life tools to cope with a challenging fast-paced technologically advanced and modernized world.
