The goals of Couples Counselling are to diffuse conflicting verbal communication; enhance intimacy, respect, and affection; remove barriers that create a feeling of stagnancy; and bring to the surface a sense of empathy and understanding within the context of the relationship. I work on interventions to help couples strengthen their relationships in primary areas such as friendship, conflict management, frequent conflict and arguments, poor communication and the creation of shared meaning. Therapy can also include specific problems like sexual difficulties, infidelity, money and parenting.
