If you have resentment, trust issues, infidelity and resistance in your relationship, I offer techniques like group hypnotherapy or couples EMDR where each person can focus on their emotion that they want to work on and do the release exercises with me, as a way to compliment healthy communication or thinking patterns in the relationship. This is not traditional talk therapy at all - it is solution focused, with each person working on processing traumas or burdens that they hold within themselves.

Brains are inherently deregulated (all of us, may I add) and most talking and dialoguing misses brain-centric problems that need more intensive help. Many times the emotional trauma created by years of solving problems ineffectively can wreak havoc on the brain's parasympathetic nervous system, not ever giving the family a break from flight or fight thinking.
