Marriage, Couples and Family Counseling
Within my practice of over thirty years, I assist couples to define their wants and needs in a way that enhances trust and intimacy. In the process they learn how to communicate about how each perceives the issues creating conflict; how to express the emotions evoked by the disagreement and how to request change in a more direct and healthy manner.
