Marriage Counseling


marriage counselor steps in when the marriage and then the family is unable to overcome obstacles. Most of us have complex coping strategies in place that get us through most of life. Marriage and family often provide us with safety, comfort, intimacy and trust, but there are times when it breaks down - so much so that you don't have the answers and need to reach out.


We teach what works! We know you may have the friendship with your spouse may be strained. The passion may have dwindled. Children may be challenging. You're unsure of how to proceed with sensitive conversations because of past results. You may simply be wondering, "What happened?"

A skilled marital counselor knows how to help you rebuild your friendship, burst through grid locked areas to experience new success in those challenging areas. Soon you'll be feeling that warm, comforting intimacy again.

If you are here reading this now it's time to reach out for help. Don't be a 'window shopper' when it comes to your marriage. Most marriages wait an average of 7-9 years before they officially reach out for help. This is after knowing for years that something was missing, while building a stronger endurance. Research is clear that in the institution of marriage it's deadly to build too much endurance. Did you know that healthy, happy marriages actually fight more often? They do so with less intensity and their outcomes are very good, but when it's time, they speak up and get it out of the way. You can learn to do this too. There's so much to teach. When will you begin?

And yes, before you ask, one person can make a monumental difference in a marriage. We have a tremendous amount of experience working with individuals who wanted to works towards a better marriage and family. We'd prefer you work with your spouse and family throughout the process, but we will start exactly where you're at and we are confident this will make a positive future impact in your life.

If we decide marriage is the primary focus, we'll discuss this in our first call.
