| Counseling |
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. People across the country and in other countries have sought Dawn's help in repairing their marriage or relationship.

Intensives
|
Intensives came into being initially for couples who flew in from out of state to obtain counseling with Dawn. 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 do significant work immediately. Other couples who travel a distance in state sometimes prefer a 2-4 hour session. |
Premarital Course
(good for any couple!) |
This is a home-study course for couples planning to get married. It meets the requirement for the Florida premarital course. Visit the website to make sure your county is included in approved counties. You can also learn a lot from it, even if you do not need the requirement. |
Getting the Love You Want workshop for couples
|
You can find more information on the Getting the Love You Want workshops by clicking on the title. You can also download a brochure from our office for the workshops.
This is a great weekend workshop for couples to focus on themselves as a couple -- 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! Rather than have 20 couples in a room with no personal contact as the presenter, I limit my workshops to 10 couples.
For gay and lesbian couples:
We have separate workshops for gay and lesbian couples who prefer them, although you are welcome at any workshop as long as you are comfortable if you are the only gay couple at a particular workshop.
PRIVATE WORKSHOPS:
Sometimes couples prefer one on one workshops in the privacy of my office. You get the same workshop with me guiding you and helping you deepen some of the tools. The private workshop is $1500 and is 2 very full days.
