ABOUT
Does couples therapy hurt?
Working on your marriage doesn’t have to be like pulling teeth. Your future couples therapist is the most non judgmental person you’ve ever met.
My curiosity is contagious and inspiring, it lightens the mood and most couples end up enjoying our work more than they thought possible. You don’t even have to leave your house, which helps people get the courage to try – yet we end up with remarkable results.
Often one partner is less willing to come for help, less able to imagine a change, maybe they are afraid that therapy will only give the other partner even more ammo to prove them wrong, weak or bad..
Imagine their surprise when they find out that with my approach the less willing partner often feels RELIEF as we uncover the pattern that gets them in trouble. I show you what gestures, actions, phrases between BOTH of you recreate each partner’s core wound, and this empowers you to catch the spiral together as a team, so you bond as you start working TOGETHER.
Bored or betrayed, miserable or suppressing your rage, uninspired or jealous, losing passion or losing trust – – This is one of the bravest things you’ve ever done. It sounds scary, but my couples often end up having so much fun that they look forward to their weekly time here.
Free introductory session of 30 minutes to sense if we are a good fit.
