Marriage is hard. Life’s stresses, schedules, and mistakes can cause distance between husband and wife. I use Gottman Method Couples Therapy to help couples disarm conflicting verbal communication; increase intimacy, respect, and affection; remove barriers that create a feeling of stagnancy; and create a heightened sense of empathy and understanding within the context of the relationship.

My goal is to help couples develop skills to build a lasting, fulfilling marriage. Couples will complete an assessment to identify their strengths and growth areas. We will have at least 6 sessions to discuss topics including:

• Communication skills

• Conflict resolution

• Financial management

• Sexual intimacy

• Spiritual beliefs and values

• Family dynamics

My husband and I have been in ministry since 1999, so I understand the unique challenges, stressors and demands on ministers and their families. I offer a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment for those seeking guidance, resources and healing. Counseling services may address a range of issues, including:

• Marital conflict

• Parenting challenges

• Spiritual burnout

• Depression and anxiety

• Trauma and grief

• Communication issues

• Infidelity

• Church hurt

• Life transitions

What better gift could a couple receive? Bless them with a counseling package to start their marriage off on a firm foundation. Contact me here for more details.
