COUPLES THERAPY
Different day… Same fights.
He’s not paying enough attention to the kids — or to me.
And when he does, he seems checked out. Or pissed off.
She won’t leave me alone. Nag, nag, nag…
“You never talk to me,” she says. “When will you be done working?”
The only thing you seem to agree on anymore is that this isn’t working.
Your marriage is feeling like a slow death
Using social media to get the human connection you desperately crave just isn’t doing it for you.
Staying up later and later to avoid getting into that lonely bed next to that person you used to know is leaving you emotionally and physically exhausted.
Working more and more is great for getting ahead — and delaying that dreaded step back into a family life that feels cold and dangerously full of conflict over seemingly anything.
You catch yourself always taking the long way home just to find those few extra moments of freedom and peace.
How did it ever get to this point?
The once-unthinkable is starting to dominate your mind.
The pain of disentangling your complicated lives, giving up on the dreams of aging together, and shattering the lives of your kids… it is all starting to seem better than continuing to live this way.
Separation and divorce are scary. The only thing stopping you is a deep sense that we haven’t tried everything. We’re not done just yet.
I still have some hope. We still have some hope.
Yes, you can reconnect and rebuild
I help stressed couples to reconnect and heal so they can rebuild the life together they know is still possible.
We will start by helping each of you feel deeply heard and understood: your frustrations, your fears, your hurts, and your hopes.
No more repeating cycles of stuffing down feelings, blowing up, shutting down, walking away, or panicking when your partner is upset.
Together we will create the safety you both need to come together again to fight life challenges instead of fighting each other.
My specialization in engaging male partners in personal and relational growth makes me particularly effective in couples therapy since it really does take two to tango.
