The Best Marriage Counseling in 90603: Whittier, CA. Restore Your Relationship.

I particularly like to work with gay male couples experiencing relationship problems. However, I also provide marriage preparation and other conjoint therapy aimed at better communication and facilitation of change and fulfillment in romantic relationships.

I strive to provide a safe place a person can go and be themselves, with no judgments. I continue in my belief that resiliency resides in everyone. I truly believe that change is possible and that everyone has room for improvement in their lives (including me).

In the safety of therapy, you each will learn about yourself in depth, in addition to gaining insights into the complex dynamics of your relationship. This increasing of knowledge, communication skills, and relational tools can combine to create intimacy and connection

Warm, nurturing relationships can help us get through the toughest times...but what if your relationship is the "tough time?" I love helping couples discover how they can finally get on the same page emotionally and feel like best friends again.

There is no mystery to therapy. At times, we all have, past regrets, feel empty, feel incomplete or unresolved in a relationship current or past. Difficulty feeling fulfilled whether it be at work or at home. Intimacy can be allusive. We explore & help find the answers

I work with individuals, couples, and families to change destructive patterns, and move towards positive communication, and emotional connectivity.

As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I see clients through the lens of their relationships. Satisfying connections with family, intimate others, co-workers, neighbors, and friends are crucial to a satisfying life, as are our relationships with ourselves.

Healing from Betrayal ~ Infidelity causes so much trauma in relationships. Spouses and partners are often left feeling hurt, betrayed and lost. But relationships can heal, and people do find trust and hope again. I help couples heal the wounds of infidelity.

Couples usually get stuck not because of what they know, but what they cannot see. Unhealthy patterns of relating become established and difficult to change. I help couples identify these patterns and create new ones that make room for your relationship to grow.

I believe we are relational by nature, and often, our "individual" problems stem from interpersonal difficulties. Couples and/or family therapy can help you find healthier and more meaningful ways of relating to the people closest to you.

I approach marital therapy without assumption or value judgement. Each person brings to a relationship unique attributes which may unknowingly contribute to conflict or painful relational patterns. I work with couples to explore, understand and change these patterns.

In many cases, marriage and family issues can be fixed. That's the good news! You owe it to yourself and the ones you care about to work toward restoration and healing.

I have over 29 years of experience helping people and their families cope with a wide variety of relationship changes, adjustment, grief and loss. Using your strengths, I will help you work through these difficult changes to help you manage their impact.
