My Style of Therapy Offers Couples Help and Change in as Few as Three Sessions
- Session One: Communication Problems? No matter what concerns you have, therapy is the answer. I will listen to each of you and you will walk out of my office feeling better about each other.
- Session Two: Communication will change your life. If you think it's difficult to get unstuck, you're right, but I can show you how to do it in session two. You will learn to communicate, get unstuck and I will help you to get ready for real change.
- Session Three: Putting it altogether and Staying Unstuck. It's fun and exciting to know you can manage your lives the way you want, and you will leave my office equipped to do it.
Whatever goal the couple wants for themselves, whether to go forward or not, I will show you how to make it a reality.
You will be able to use what you have learned in a creative and fun way. If you do wish to have further sessions, you are certainly welcome.
Couples Counseling
Couples today experience many pressures. These pressures can cause stress and isolation. For example, you may find yourselves busy or exhausted by work, children, school or any number of matters which can have a negative impact on your lives.

Anecdotal Therapy Story
All names and stories are fictional.Mary Jane and her husband were married in the mid 20's and with great joy were soon to become the parents of a baby boy. Mary Jane couldn't have been happier, but there they were, she and her husband working and staying up nights with the baby. They used to have time for each other and now the baby required all their attention. Before long, their frustrations overwhelmed them and Mary Jane and her husband began fighting, each finding fault with the other. Before they realized it, their love for one another seemed exhausted. They wanted help but didn't know where to turn. This is one of the more difficult hurdles a couple can face, but it is one which a therapist's skills can help you resolve.
