Great Couples Counseling in Deerfield Beach, FL. Therapy to heal relationships.

Most couples have problems with communications, such as anger, depression, anxiety, substance abuse, etc. I help each of you to identify and express what you believe is harming your relationship. Then, I help each of you identify which small changes you can make in your day-to-day life that will result in big changes and better communication in your relationship.

We are passionate about and skilled with helping couples to repair and strengthen their relationship by utilizing techniques from evidence-based practices such as Emotionally-Focused Couples Therapy and the Gottman Method. These techniques help get to the heart of the matter to increase relationship satisfaction and heal emotional injuries that may have occurred throughout the relationship or as a result of previous trauma. Individual therapy for each partner is also recommended as best practice for helping each person to work through their personal traumas.

Since 1992 I have been helping couples and business partners create relationships that work better and bring new, creative solutions to their lives. I have helped couples struggling with Infidelity and the aftermath of an Affair to learn how to rebuild their trust again. I have been helping men and women overcome Anger, Stress, Anxiety, Depression, Compulsive Behaviors, Alcohol and Substance Abuse and Sexual Problems. I have helped literally hundreds of people create better, more satisfying lives.

Most couples counselors expect you to come weekly for many months, and you will not know in advance how much time and money you will have to spend. Couples almost always need just 3 or 4 sessions with me to leave happily, their problems gone permanently. Couples who have seen me over the years have paid much less than they would have paid to old-fashioned therapists who get so bogged down in psychoanalyzing couples that most couples quit in frustration, having wasted lots of money and found no permanent solutions. How can I enable change in such a short time? We will spend most of our time creating solutions, instead of analyzing problems.

Life is about relationships. When you consider what makes most people happy or sad it is usually the health of their relationships. Your relationship may just be starting out, you may define it as a committed, exclusive one or you may be struggling through some marital conflicts. If you find yourself wondering how to make your relationship work as a couple, improve your communication, enhance and improve your relationship or perhaps you are just wondering if you can sustain a healthy relationship; don't battle alone. At Gateway we specialize in couple counseling and can help you as a couple.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), I have extensive training and experience helping couples navigate some of the most painful and difficult chapters of their relationships. My approach is both compassionate and practical, shaped by years of walking with couples across the country as they work through challenges of trust, intimacy, and communication. I have also been featured in leading outlets such as Forbes, The Knot, Women’s Health, Yahoo, Self, Glamour, and AARP for my insights on relationships, intimacy, and communication. Whether you are facing ongoing conflict, a loss of closeness, or the aftermath of betrayal, I would be honored to meet with you and your partner.

Maintaining balance and fostering a healthy relationship requires effort and commitment from both partners. Couples can benefit from therapy by addressing various aspects of their relationship, such as improving problem-solving skills, enhancing communication and understanding between partners, resolving differences, and nurturing what works well. Additionally, couples can work on developing shared meaning and goals to create a fulfilling relationship together. Common issues that couples seek therapy for include financial concerns, differences in parenting styles and lifestyle preferences, and challenges related to sexual intimacy. Through therapy, couples can gain valuable insights, tools, and strategies to strengthen their bond and navigate challenges effectively.

COMMUNICATION AND SUPPORT IS VITAL FOR A MEANINGFUL AND LOVING MARRIAGE OR RELATIONSHIP. Sometimes we struggle to identify our needs to our partner and don’t know what they truly need in the relationship. Even when you want to show love and be loved, it is difficult when one or more partner struggles to be emotionally available. The couples or marriage therapist helps couples support each other during crisis, open up about their feelings, and reconnect with the fun in their relationship.

Are you feeling lonely in your own marriage? Disrespected? Misunderstood? It doesn’t have to stay this way. Far too often, high-achieving men feel disrespected and lonely within their own marriages.

I will help you identify destructive patterns in your marriage and provide healthier alternatives. I’ll help you improve communication, learn to fight fair, and increase understanding and connection.

Do you feel stuck in the same argument cycle with your partner? Does it seem like any little thing can lead to a big blow up. If your relationship is in trouble you often find it hard to connect and easy to engage in meaningless fights. I like to encourage partners to understand one another's emotional needs and to feel empathy. I have had intensive training in EFT - Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy -proven by research to be a very effective approach to working with couples. I help couples understand the root of their issues and assist them in connecting at a deeper level. I work with marriages in crisis, infidelity, same sex relationship, and also provide premarital counseling.

I believe in the power of couples therapy to change the dynamics in your relationship. Having a trained Marriage and Family therapist to help you identify and become clear in what you need to do differently to improve your marriage and change the dynamics in your relationship can help. If you are both willing to make changes I have helped couples on the brink of divorce and in the middle of overwhelming crisis overcome these things and be closer than they ever imagined they could be.

Working with couples is extremely specialized and should only be done with a trained clinician. Please ask the right questions to ensure you are in good hands with someone who knows how to guide you. The client is the relationship - not the individuals! So an individual therapist is not the way to go here. At KML, we have a trained PSYPACT psychologist who is licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT), so she can work in any PSYPACT state. This work should focus on what the couple wants for their relationship (sometimes the goal is uncoupling kindly), guiding the couple in healthy growth of the relationship, and all without shame! Relationships are hard and we are here to help!
