Relationship Conflicts

Often without realizing it, people bring problematic beliefs, expectations and behavior patterns to their adult relationships. I help couples understand their conflicts and communicate more effectively with each other by acting as a facilitator to help clarify what each person means and how it may differ from what his or her partner hears. By establishing a safe environment for couples, I help them address the worries that may have created distance in their relationship and interfered with their feelings of closeness and understanding. Through this process, people learn to listen more openly to each other, ask more directly for what they want, and generally interact more effectively in their relationships.
