| Practice Description: |
Are you longing for a fulfilling and loving relationship with your partner? Do you desperately desire a deeper connection with your significant other? Are you feeling lonely even though you have someone to go home too? Are you frustrated and feeling like giving up on your relationship and don't know how you got to where you are? Have you been in a committed relationship for years but feel like you live with a stranger? Do you find conversations ending in arguments and hurt feelings? Do you sit in your car not wanting to get out and go into your home? Did you once have great happiness and physical intimacy in your relationship, but haven't for quite a while? I can help. I specialize in Healing Relationships and helping couples connect on a deeper level, and understand one another better than they ever thought possible. I can give you and your partner the tools you need and teach you both the understanding and skills necessary for a mutually loving, lasting and fulfilling relationship .
I am also deeply committed to helping you and your family members heal in relationship to one another, particularly for families that may be struggling with issues of Blending together such as in Step, Adopted or Foster Family relationships, LGBTQ families, as well as those families that are coming together after long absences.
I am also very concerned about helping you heal in relationship to yourself, particularly in regards to the specific challenges facing those who are struggling with their Body Image and Disordered Eating.
