You and your partner want to feel at home with each other, securely in love. Yet you feel stuck every time something tough comes up and nothing is resolved. You may keep reaching out, hoping to draw your partner closer, only to feel fooled and alone. Or maybe you may keep the hurt inside, hoping things will clear up with time; yet you're tired of the constant tension. In either case you want help. Even if the calendar is full with the kids' activities, work and all that life asks from you, you're willing to create space for this relationship.
I primarily use Emotion Focused Couples Therapy. EFT applies 50 years of research on human bonding and 30 years of applying that research to couples counseling. This helps us understand and work through challenging conflict patterns in our relationships. I'm also influenced by Gottman Method Couples Counseling and its 30-plus years of relationship research.
In our work together, you’ll experience professional, trusted methods with an encouraging, plaid & jeans sincerity. Couples appreciate how this nurturing style provides safety and hope. Let's understand what patterns keep you stuck and what it takes to change them so that you and your partner can feel at home with each other again!
