COUPLES COUNSELING
More than anything else, we have a need to be seen -- to be understood, accepted and loved, just as we are. We enter relationships in order to experience this kind of intimacy, but all too often, we end up disappointed and disillusioned.
I help you navigate through the misunderstandings and hurts, and recapture the sense of awe and anticipation you had when you first fell in love. When a relationship is not working, the problem may be:
How to set good boundaries: How do you remain your unique self while functioning within the context of a cooperative, collaborative relationship? I help you establish good boundaries -- when to say 'yes' and when to say 'no' -- while honoring both both Self and Other.
How to speak so your partner hears: We typically underestimate the importance -- and the difficulty -- of good communication! In order to be a good communicator, a number of skills must be mastered. These include:
Deep honoring of self and other. Often, we are the most careless with the ones we love. For love to last, it is important to value your partner as you might value the most precious and rare of jewels.
I use a variety of tools to help you discover the way back to a joyful, vibrant, and loving relationship.

- Taking responsibility for your own thoughts and feelings. (No blaming!)
- Transparency and honesty in your messages, even when it means you are vulnerable
- Deep listening. Listening to your partner with the desire to truly know how he or she thinks and feels -- even when you disagree
- Speaking with love. The most sensitive and difficult messages can be delivered with love.
