Marriage counseling that Heals in Plano, IL. Restore Your Relationship.

I use the concept of PIES which is making sure that married couples have intimacy in the; Physical, Intellectual, Emotional and Spiritual areas of the marriage. I also help couples accept their spouses and learn to appreciate who they were and are today. Dating is key.

I teach couples how to communicate as a team. I have discovered that what became a big problem with couples is that they got in a rut, existing on auto-pilot. Whether one or both of you begins therapy, your relationship will improve in studying how it's been going.

Problems can arise in any relationship, romantic, parent/child, friendship or sibling and it can be difficult to resolve these problems. I can help you find better ways to communicate and express feelings and needs or by finding a way to end or change relationships.

If you are concerned about your relationship, this is normal. Most people wonder how healthy their relationship is and if it could be better. Society teaches us to focus on the fun of falling in love but not the tools to make relationships work well in the long-term.

For over 25 years I have worked in the specialty of marriage/couple therapy. Affairs do not have to mean the end of a relationship. Unproductive repetitious patterns can be broken. I offer a newly developed service called Discernment Counseling for couples @ crossroads.

A healthy marriage takes work. Therapy will reach the heart of the issues and begin the process of restoration. Let's get started.

Although couples or marriage counseling is recommended as soon as discontent arises, many couples will not seek therapy until their marriage is in crisis making it more difficult, though definitely not impossible, to repair problems.

Relationships can be a great source of pleasure and at times a great source of stress. We help individuals address the issues causing relational distress, teach relationship skills, and coach clients on how to use the skills to cultivate dynamic relationships.

We will work as a team to help you to find the spark that drew you together. We will work to uncover the patterns of behavior and communication that have dampened that spark. We will discover ways to rebuild and reawaken the hopes and dreams of spending a life together.

More relationships fail than succeed because to maintain a lifetime connection takes sacrifice and commitment. The skills to sustain a committed relationship go against human nature. I work with couples to develop habits that will keep them together.
