I am a warm, caring, experienced Couple and Relationship expert. I have an extremely high success rate helping couples to resolve their issues and to achieve fulfilling relationships. I provide a secure and safe environment for you to work on your relationship: feeling safe with your therapist is key to succeeding with your goals to improve your relationship.
I have experience and can help you with the following kinds of issues and situations:
Transitions such as:
All present new challenges and opportunities to grow together and to renegotiate your relationship and resolve differences.
For those couples who are not yet married, it is important to clarify expectations and work out differences before getting married. Often couples don’t verbalize their expectations before marriage and assume they are on the same page or if they do uncover differences between them they have difficulty negotiating their difference and get stuck in reoccurring arguments. Premarital counseling can help to solidify your relationship and set you on the right course.
For those who are still single and looking for a lifelong partner, I can help them to choose wisely and pick a complementary partner and to avoid choosing unavailable people. Some people constantly choose unavailable or inappropriate partners and wonder why everyone else is engaged or married or in committed relationships except for them.
I can help open new ways of viewing your situation to regain your close connection. My goals for your relationship include better communication and an increased understanding for each partner. Together we will find out what is holding you back from having joy and fulfillment. Often, all you need is a fresh perspective on a difficult problem and a nudge in the direction of a solution. For some individuals or couples, some issues can stem from childhood trauma, difficulties or simply repeating patterns that they experienced in their families. I can help you make sure that the past isn’t affecting you in a negative way.
For those in New York state I am available for telephone or online counseling sessions.
