Counseling for Relationship Issues

Relationships are a fundamental part of our lives, but they can also be sources of stress and conflict. Whether you're dealing with issues with adult children, parents, a break up, going through a divorce, facing challenges in working relationships, or struggling with friendships and family dynamics, counseling can help. I focus on providing a compassionate and insightful approach, guiding you through these complex situations to help you build stronger, healthier relationships.

Are you finding it difficult to communicate with your adult children or parents, feeling the strain of a divorce or break up, or dealing with conflicts at work?

Perhaps you’re struggling to maintain healthy friendships or feeling overwhelmed by family tensions.

You might feel stuck, frustrated, and unsure of how to improve these relationships. You want to feel connected, understood, and able to set healthy boundaries, but obstacles keep getting in the way.

Relationship issues can deeply affect your emotional well-being and overall quality of life. You might feel isolated, misunderstood, or constantly in conflict. These struggles can lead to stress, anxiety, and a sense of helplessness. Through counseling, we will work together to understand the underlying issues in your relationships. We will explore communication patterns, identify triggers, and develop strategies to improve your interactions. This deeper work can help you build stronger, more fulfilling relationships, and enhance your emotional health and resilience.

Process of Therapy

  • Schedule a free 15-minute phone or video consultation to discuss your needs and see if we’re a good fit.

  • In our first full session, we'll explore your history and current challenges to create a tailored plan.

  • Through regular sessions, we'll work on identifying triggers, developing coping strategies, and addressing negative thought patterns. As you progress, we'll adjust our approach to ensure you're continuously growing and achieving your goals.

  • You'll gain the skills and confidence to manage anxiety and stress independently, leading to a more balanced and fulfilling life.

questions you may have

  • Counseling can help with a wide range of relationship issues, including communication problems, conflicts with adult children, parents, divorce, workplace relationships, friendships, and family dynamics.

  • Counseling provides a safe space to explore and understand the dynamics of your relationships. Through therapeutic techniques, you can develop better communication skills, set healthy boundaries, and resolve conflicts more effectively.

  • I use a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), DBT, solution-focused therapy, and supportive counseling. These approaches help you address negative patterns, develop practical strategies, and focus on solutions to improve your relationships.

  • The time it takes to see improvements varies for each person and each relationship. Some clients begin to see positive changes after a few sessions, while others may take longer. Consistency and commitment to the therapeutic process are key factors in achieving positive outcomes.

  • During a session, we will discuss your current challenges, explore the dynamics of your relationships, and work on strategies to improve communication and resolve conflicts. Sessions are collaborative and tailored to your specific needs and goals.

  • To get started, schedule a free 15-minute consultation where we can discuss your needs and determine how we can best work together. This initial conversation helps us ensure a good fit and sets the foundation for your therapy journey.
