All relationships have problems from time to time.  It is natural and normal to argue.  However, sometimes arguments or issues aren’t resolved and resentments can build up.  This can also lead to the formation of destructive communication habits.  When this happens the problems seem overwhelming and the assistance of a therapist may be needed.  A couples therapist can help you recognize destructive patterns and provide objective and non-judgmental feedback.

Types of problems couples may have:

1.  Communication:  Research shows that communication is the number one issue in relationships.  I have helped many couples improve their relationship simply by improving their communication skills via a set of tools and exercises that I have developed.  Sometimes small changes can have big results!

2.  Affairs/Trust Issues: Another common issue for couples is recovering from an affair.  Sometimes, the trust issues seem to be so deep that it may feel like there is no hope.  I can help you negotiate this delicate situation, and help you build behaviors that are likely to increase trust.

3. Premarital:  I have also been successful working with premarital couples in helping them to establish healthy communication and teaching them to negotiate effectively in order to lay the foundation for a sound relationship.  I also have specialized training in working with military couples.

4. Military Marriages: I have specialized training on the unique challenges of military marriages.

Because couples counseling is so different from individual counseling, it is recommended that you seek a therapist specifically trained in couples therapy.  Therapists who are Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists, such as myself, are required by the state of Florida to receive this special training.
