Marriage and Pre-Marital Counseling
Marriage relationships are meant to be happy and stable. But sometimes things go wrong that just devastates your world. There is always hope, things can get better, and with professional help, it can. I have more than 20 years of counseling experience, working with individuals and with couples to help them transform their negative relationships to positive ones. My focus is to help married couples regain or achieve an extraordinary level of harmony and intimacy in marriage, and I can help you transform yours.
I work with couples who are experiencing a negative spiral in their relationship, where mistrust, resentment, and frustration have taken over. I also work with couples who desire a Christian based marriage therapy. My goal is to help couples rekindle their love and trust towards each other, and to their family, and regain the level of true commitment that they desire. Other relationship issues that might be of interest to seek my help include:
-
Intimacy problems

Affairs

Communication and conflict resolution problems

Grief and loss
-
Anger management

Work/life problems
