Marriage counseling that Heals in River Vale, NJ. Restore Your Relationship.

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

Our closest relationships provide the sustenance for our emotional lives. When they are stressful or unfulfilling, we feel pain instead of joy. I help couples explore their ways of relating so they can repair what isn't working and find renewed joy in being together.

I also provide couples counseling for alternative and traditional relationships. I use an approach to counseling that leans heavily on Imago therapy, where you will learn how to communicate more effectively with your partner so that needs and desires are heard.

With couples, I show each partner how first to control their emotional reactions (anger & hurt) and how to negotiate for what they want. This enables each individual to respond more effectively to their partner and increases the chances of problem resolution.

AN EXCELLENT VALUE, OUR SUPPORTIVE & EDUCATIVE 90-MINUTE FIRST CONSULTATION HAS HELPED MANY CLIENTS--PROVIDING THEM WITH MODELS FOR INTIMACY, EMPATHIC COMMUNICATION & CONFLICT RESOLUTION. ADDITIONAL 60-MINUTE SESSIONS ARE POSSIBLE FOR FURTHER EMOTIONAL ENLIGHTENMENT

The marital relationship is a tug of war for power and control. Relationships need to permit the expression of emotions otherwise anger can leave the couple in a state of despair and confusion. Take responsibility, leaving blame behind, leads to relationship repair.

I provide marriage counseling & couples therapy for all types of relationship problems, such as affairs & infidelity, problems with conflict, communication, distancing and intimacy issues. I offer a safe place for couples to reconnect & strengthen their relationships.

Careers and children place enormous strains on a couple’s ability to be together in an intimate and satisfying way. Every couple has different ways of coping with the challenges, and counseling can provide the perspective and encouragement to re-create a shared vision.

Every couple gets stuck sometimes. Using the Gottman Method, I help partners break negative cycles, rebuild trust & communicate in ways that actually stick. Real, lasting change is possible when you have the right tools & a judgment-free space to do the work.

I have developed a unique approach to couples counseling that has proven to be effective in increasing communication.

I specialize in helping couples reconnect through life’s most difficult seasons. Whether facing broken communication, lost intimacy, infidelity, or deep exhaustion, I provide a path forward toward healing, closeness, and renewed trust.
