Couples Counseling

Marriage couples counseling

Some compare love relationships to a dance.  And, while it “takes two to tango," when one partner shifts, the whole relationship is re-organized.  This means that couples counseling can work without both partners!  Jennine assists couples in navigating all of the complicated areas of love relationships: financial, sexual, verbal and non-verbal communication, interpersonal dynamics, and more.  If you are looping over and over within the same arguments, if you feel disillusioned and frustrated... it doesn’t have to be this way!  Re-discover your love and affection and feel valued and esteemed in your relationship.  Jennine will give you the tools to work together, stop fighting and start enjoying your relationship.

  • Feeling stuck in a dead-end relationship where "taking breaks" and the "silent treatment" just aren't working?    
  • Are you desperately searching for ways to rekindle the fizzled flame in your dull love life?
  • Have you ever thought to yourself "is this love?"

Maybe you're simply looking for ways to bring you and your loved one to a higher level of understanding and communication.  If any of these relate to you, I can help you learn how to create a stronger relationship.

Superior communication is the key to a stronger relationship.  Learning when to listen and when to speak in your relationship is an integral part of communication.  One of my jobs with couples is help them begin resolving issues in their past to decrease the resentments that may be harbored.  By learning coping skills to deal with stressful issues, defining boundaries in the relationship, and opening the lines of communication, you can begin to grow.  This then gives you the tools to solidify and enhance that warm connection you have long desired for. Every couples session varies from the depth to the length of time.  Situations entwined with deeper, more complex wounds often require more commitment from both partners.  But do not let this discourage or disway your decision for couples counseling.  The best gift you can give to yourself or your partner is therapy that will allow you both to bond and love deeper and harder than you ever imagined.

My goal with couples therapy is to work proactively in your relationship, much like you proactively work at work or even when you are driving.  Couple therapy can be the prevention rather than the intervention. Think about it, too often couples use counseling as a last resort; many times those same couples also realize they've waited too long to improve their relationship. Working on your communication patterns early in the relationship may save you a substantial amount of heartache down the road.

So treat yourelf and your partner by scheduling a couples therapy appointment with me today.  I want to be your there to witness the bond grow deeper.  Because as your relationship therapist, that is my promise to you.
