Every relationship is different, but all couples struggle with connecting and communicating at times. I help couples in the following ways:
Private Couples Retreats
Hold Me Tight® Couples Workshops
Couples Coaching
If you are on this page, you are probably considering traditional couples therapy. Nonetheless, I strongly encourage you to consider my Couples Workshops. I consistently see them as the quickest and most cost effective solution for improving your relationship.
Private Couples Retreats
Who it’s for? Couples struggling with ongoing communication issues and one (or both) partners are burning-out.
These Retreats are ideal for couples who:
- Feel lonely, stuck, and hopeless in their relationship
- Experienced significant damage in their relationship, such as an affair
- Are exhausted from trying and are considering couples treatment as a ‘last chance’
- Needing the best chance for success due to speed and intensity of treatment
I help you with:
- Feeling ‘seen’ and ‘heard’ by your partner
- Understanding ‘why’ you became so disconnected
- Learning how to communicate more authentically with one another
- Increasing and expressing empathy so connection can build.
- Interacting in a manner to bring your partner closer, rather than pushing him/her away
- Actively doing things different to make significant change even hours after we begin
“Hold Me Tight”® Couples Workshops
Who it’s for? Couples of all ages, cultures, genders and orientations who want to improve the quality of communication and connection in their relationships.
These Workshops are ideal for couples:
- with busy schedules
- wanting to see change quickly
- needing a cost-effective option to traditional weekly sessions or Couples Retreats
I help you with:
- Hearing/understanding each other’s perspective better so you can communicate from a place of compassion, not anger
- Identifying the pattern you two engage in when you fight
- Recognizing raw spots that may cause a loss of connection
- Communicating in ways to avoid triggering defenses
- Learning how to apologize so that your partner can forgive past hurts
- Sharing your most vulnerable feelings, knowing your partner is receptive to hearing them
Couples Coaching
Who it’s for? This is an exclusive online service I offer only to people who have gone through a Private Couples Retreat or a Hold Me Tight Couples Workshop with me. Coaching sessions are skill-based, topic-focused, and cost-effective.
Couples Coaching is ideal for couples who:
- Feel apprehensive without temporary ongoing support
- Want practice to reinforce skills and increase confidence
- Require intermittent support rather than ongoing therapy
I help you with:
- Increasing your confidence and making sure you do it ‘right’
- Maintaining the skills through accountability
- Learning additional tools and skills as different situations arise
- Experiencing ongoing feelings of success as you succeed
