My special focus is close relationships. I help couples rediscover positive feelings, communicate better, work through conflict cooperatively, and repair the relationship after tension or hurt. I can help heal the wounds of infidelity or other emotional injuries. If you disagree on something, I stay neutral while helping you learn how to communicate in a productive manner, and how to make decisions together. I take sides only when someone is doing something incompatible with a healthy, satisfying partnership, and then I take the side of the relationship. I do so by speaking directly to behaviors like addiction, hostility, dishonesty, etc. Benefits of effective couples therapy include: improved communication, return to more positive emotions of warmth and fondness, fewer painful disagreements, repairing the relationship after conflict, more satisfying sex, better emotional attunement, healing the wounds of infidelity or other emotional injuries, more deposits in the “emotional bank acco
