You’ve invested your time, your future, and whole heart in your relationship. So when misunderstandings and conflicts escalate, you’re likely to experience depression and anxiety. In couples counseling with me, you’ll each acquire insight and practical tools so you can understand each other, and resolve conflict. You’ll also experience the greater emotional connection and guided communication practice you need to reconnect in harmony and strength.

I know that a deeply wounded relationship can seem unredeemable. But people do rebuild after disasters, and more and more couples are choosing to remodel the relationship they have. Like remodeling, couples counseling usually involves a certain amount of demolition, new construction, a little rewiring, and some final refurbishing. It involves a fair amount of time, commitment, and the development of a shared vision. Similar to most remodels, the end result is so much better than what you previously had, or even dreamed of.

The biggest mistake couples make is waiting too long to address hurt emotions and disagreements. This creates knotted and stubborn problems that are not easy to untangle on your own. Few of us come to our relationships with all the maturity, skill, and stability love requires. But that is easy fix. Hundreds of couples have found their love again, and you can too.

Even if divorce is imminent, or if only one partner is willing to come, there are many things to process, especially if there are children involved. You will likely be in continued communication with your spouse, even if you’re no longer married. Learning to have a calm, level-headed approach to a difficult reality benefits everyone.
