Clinicians who offer sliding scale payment structures may offer lower or reduced fees based on an individual's ability to pay. Please contact this clinician for more details regarding their fees or sliding scale policy.My Approach to Helping
With a specialization in relationship counseling, I work with individuals, couples and other family configurations, whose relationships have become stuck, contentious, or more hurtful than nurturing.
In a collaborative environment that focuses on clients' strengths and capacities rather than on their deficits or neuroses, we explore their "blindspots" and triggers, looking at family-of-origin factors or past experiences that may be contributing to the current situation. I place a lot of emphasis on proposing more effective ways to offer and receive criticism, and to manage differences.
Where appropriate, I may help an individual or couple who have come to the end of the road separate in the most amicable way possible.
My work with early-stage (pre- and post-marital) couples provides a safe space to:
-- tackle long-standing struggles that keep circling round;
-- address issues of compatibility;
-- explore individual goals and values, touching on lifestyle, career, faith, parenting, money, sex;
-- address fears or reservations about making a long-term commitment.
