I am certified in the Gottman Method of Couples’ Therapy and I
am currently studying Susan Johnson’s Emotionally Focused
Couples’ Therapy.With couples, I begin with an assessment of their relationship which includes the friendship system, the conflict system, and the meanings system. From there we begin working on the cycles of interaction that maintain distress in the relationship and move to create change events that usher in new, healthier patterns, as well as teach the concepts and tools that maintain these patterns.
My expertise with
couples includes:
- improving communication
- building friendship and emotional intimacy constructive
- conflict resolution
- balancing autonomy and intimacy
- stress and anger management
- childrearing, sexuality
- pre-marital counseling
- resolving attachment issues
- and healing shame
- trauma, grief, affairs, and other issues that have impacted a relationship.
I also help individuals recover from traumatic and addictive relationships.
