How I will help you
We will first begin by hearing how each of you describes what is going good and bad in your marriage. I will ask you to think about what you do that contributes to the problem. We can only change ourselves, we can’t change others.
So, by thinking about your contribution to the troubles, you have the possibility of making effective change in your marriage. We will then work methodically to help you both listen and communicate more effectively. We will address the complaints one at a time attempting to shed light on all of the issues that may be present.
If you are going through some life changing experiences in your marriage, or are not sure, contact me to schedule an appointment.
