Couples seek therapy for a great variety of reasons.  Couples work is near and dear to my heart, as satisfaction and happiness in one's primary relationship, or alternatively, sadness and frustration, influence tremendously our well being.   I welcome warmly clients in open or polyamorous relationships.  

 

Some common questions:

 

• How do we communicate without shouting and getting angry?

• Can I, how do I, trust her/him again?

• Should we stay together or separate?  

• How do I live with my partner's addiction or emotional challenges?

• How will we raise our children if we do separate?

• Can I feel less alone in my relationship?

• Do I still want this relationship?

• Can we have a satisfying sexual relationship?  

• How do we rebuild emotional and sexual intimacy?

• Can we have a more non-traditional relatonship? 

• Can we rediscover the joy and passion we once shared?

• How do we nurture our relationship?

 

With openness, compassion, and non-judgement, I can work to help you and your partner explore these questions.  I use a variety of techniques taken from different approaches to couples work (including PACT and Hakomi) to help couples feel more secure and loved in their relationships.
