Marriage counseling, couples therapy and helping individuals within those relationships heal and grow remains at the core of my practice and has for the last 30 years. Marital therapy using the Imago Relationship Therapy model with couples from diverse backgrounds or similar neighborhoods helps create connection and build intimacy partners forgot they had. Whether you are seeking pre-marital counseling, marriage therapy or family therapy or even individual healing within your marriage, beginning with the first meeting, your needs will be focused on and your desires for healthy therapy outcome clearly identified.
Right from the beginning our collaborative work in relationship therapy with couples counseling will equip you with new ways to listen and speak that build on authenticity, empathy and respect. Imago Relationship therapy helps couples heal not only in the current relationship but from past possible childhood wounds. With over 27 years experience as a Certified Imago Relationship Therapist and special training in dealing with affairs and trauma, Hypnotherapy and Jungian therapy as well as Gottman methods, our progress for your marital therapy goals can begin in the first session.
You will learn about the ability to change your brain in healthy ways and current neuroscience research as well as integrate your faith life/spirituality into therapy if you desire to do so. Current research shows great effects of meditative prayer for healing depression,trauma and anxiety. Additionally, if you have suffered trauma from childhood or in marriage, Imago couples therapy offers genuine hope for healing and moving into the marriage you desire.
Conflict in marriage is just the seeds of growth trying to happen. So if you are ready and open to growth take heart, effective marital therapy is just a phone call away. Free supportive links are also on my website.
