Family & Relationship Counseling

I offer counseling for family relationships and facilitate relationship repair. If your family relationships are creating distress, you have clicked on the right web page. Our family relationships can be stressful. Sometimes we feel like the people we love the most cause us the most distress. Often we get into negative patterns of interacting with our children/teens, spouse or other family members that are challenging to manage. We need more than just good communication skills; we need a new way of interacting on a much deeper level.

Therapy Approach

My approach is targeted at improving and repairing your relationship with your loved one. I use a method of therapy called Emotionally-focused Family Therapy (EFFT). EFFT is a unique therapy, based on methods designed to help people improve emotional connection. I work with each person to help you accept, express, regulate, make sense of and transform emotion. EFFT approach focuses on the development of emotional intelligence and on the importance of secure relationships.

What You Can Expect…

With your active participation, relationship counseling can be a journey from defensiveness and frustration to connection and openness. With the help of the therapist's empathetic understanding and the use of experiential methods, you can learn how to make healthy contact with feelings, memories, thoughts, and physical sensations that may have been ignored, feared or avoided. Through this process, I will work with you to help you experience a new way of connecting with your loved ones and create the relationship you want.

I hope to see you soon…

Improving your relationship with your loved ones can be the most important work you will ever do. The quality of your relationships can impact how you feel about yourself, your kids, your family, your LIFE! My wish is that you experience Health and Hope in your relationships.
