Rebooting Connection

Rebooting and Refreshing

On my other pages I have addressed some clear and difficult issues that I can help you with such as clearing up resentments and stopping communication breakdowns.

Here I offer a counseling service for Couples that is just as important, that of refreshing your felt sense of love and feeling that sparkle again toward your partner.

Lifting the long term slump

The minutia of life, kids and the grind of ongoing goals all conspire to render Couples distracted and overwhelmed.

Sometimes to get through it all we just go on automatic pilot and that excited chemistry that brought us together is lost in the dust. It takes a lot of energy to balance multiple priorities. Responsibilities can often cause us to feel disconnected from the best in our partner and in ourselves.

Neutral

My sessions give you a safe, neutral space to disconnect from worries, burdens and find a softer clarity. I will help you find your way back to the joy of being together.

To this end I offer assistance in remembering what works but more importantly I will help you actually reconnect with each other. This can involve refreshing your communication, activities and intimacy.  It can also involve letting go of certain things that may be inhibiting you.

Variety

The counseling methods that I use to accomplish this vary widely because my style as a Therapist is to customize solutions that are unique for who you are and what kind of relationship you have.

If you find that things are pretty good but the shine has dimmed and you’re feeling disconnected from each other then send me a note. We can schedule a session to address this.

Email is the best way to reach me
