Do we need relationship counseling?  Take the quiz to find out.

 


Feeling anxious, worried or overwhelmed?

Feeling like it's all just too much?

Having trouble coping with your everyday activities?

Having trouble in your relationship?


A small but still strong part of you has brought you to this website.  That's the part of you that can be strengthened to help you cope with life.  You're not "crazy", you are just a person whose stress has exceeded his or her ability to cope.  Many, many people have felt at one time or another just as you do now.  


Maybe you think you aren't "crazy enough" for counseling.  I encourage you to come in anyway- I can work with you to reduce your stress, clarify your goals and improve your relationships.

Research shows that counseling can help you find relief.

So why not just come in and talk to me?  I offer a complimentary first session to see if we are a good fit together.  If I think you would be better served by another therapist, I will let you know.

If you decide to work with me, I will partner with you to use a variety of clinically proven and straightforward methods.


Relationship Counseling.  Research shows that communication is the number one issue in relationships.  I have developed a set of tools and exercises that have proven time and again to help couples communicate.  Sometimes small changes can have big results!  I have also been successful working with premarital couples in helping them to establish healthy communication and learn to negotiate effectively to lay the foundation for a sound relationship.  


To see how I have helped others, please read my Customer Testimonials.

 Feel like you can't afford counseling?

 

  • You'll find my rates are significantly lower than most licensed professionals, who are charging $100 to $120 per session. 

 

  • Untreated mental conditions and/or stress can lengthen treatment time, costing you more money in the long run if you wait to get treatment. 

 

  • Improving and maintaining your mental health is an investment in yourself that will pay off for the rest of your life.  

 

  • Therapy can help you deal with the additional stress you may feel due to the poor economy.
