Stay in Love or Enhance your Love
Do you want to stay in love? Enhance your love? Regain your love?
My couples' counseling sessions are for people getting married, others contemplating marriage, those already married and any couple who wants to stay in love or regain their love -- whether married or not. I believe that the core of any intimate, long-term relationship must include;
- Finding out what makes your partner feel loved so that you can express love in that way to your partner and vice cersa
- Maintaining unconditional regard for each other
- Forgiving when you feel hurt
- Showing mutual appreciation
- Asking for what you need
- Actively listening until you clearly understand what your partner is saying
- Calmly negotiatiating solutions that leave neither of you feeling like a loser
- Following through on what you say you'll do
Sessions tend to include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), choosing more realistic and helpful thoughts until they become realistic and helpful habits of thinking.
All couples are welcome. I don't do sex therapy, but I work with the couple to address any other issues between them.
