My specialty is to help people deepen and repair marriages, partnerships, and relationships of all kinds; prepare for committed relationship; discover patterns that undermine your relationships; and and to assist people to move on after the loss of an important relationship. It is my belief that while our work is to strengthen your relationship abilities for your primary relationship(s), the effects spread into the world in all places that your life touches.

My counseling style often uses elements of coaching and is designed to be fairly short-term. This work gives you practical, effective information and tools to address your concerns, to deepen connection, and to help you meet your goals.

Counseling for couples can average between 8-14 sessions, depending on the issues. Some are handled in less.

Intensives are 1-2 full or half days of counseling for couples. They can be a good way for couples in crisis to get a jump start and significant work immediately. They are also used by couples who come from out of town. (For those who travel a distance, other options such as 2-3 hour sessions are also available.)

You can find more information on the Getting the Love You Want workshops by clicking on the title. This is a great weekend workshop for couples to learn skills, to communicate with depth, to resolve and dissolve conflict, and to deepen connection and intimacy. The workshop is for couples who have a good relationship they want to enrich and deepen, for couples who get stuck from time to time, for couples in moderate distress, and for couples who don't even know if they want to be together -- and for others in between!

We have separate weekends for gay and lesbian couples.
