Working together with a loved one is helpful in resolving the many issues that can arise in a close relationship whether with a romantic partner, family member, friend or work associate.  Difficulties in relationships are often related to relationship “habits” that lead to ongoing problems.  By identifying these habits, understanding how they came to be, and changing our behavior we can enjoy more positive, close, effective and caring relationships.  The issues listed are just some of those I help couples with:
 
• Fighting
• Ineffective communication
• Repetitive and/or unresolved conflict
• Decisions about staying together or separating
• Pre-marital counseling
• Sexual problems
• Healing from affairs
• Parenting
• Managing changes in life circumstances (birth of children, changes in financial status, elder care, illness, extended family conflicts, etc.)
 
Goals of relationship therapy
•  Improved communications
•  Identifying patterns that don’t work and learning healthy relationship     skills
•  Positive conflict resolution
•  Establishing a strong, warm and loving relationship
