Is there a future for us?
Now, you are wondering and confused about your future together. You try to smile and put on a happy face every day, but sadness and despair take over as soon as work is over. Going home? They say home is where the heart is, but going home is bitter, not sweet, for you.
Your husband hardly answers your calls, and he is cold and lacks affection, continually complaining about how busy he is at work. Communication is lacking, and you struggle to fill the vacuum that has become your relationship with something else.
Happiness has abandoned you. Now, frustration and tension have replaced the love that brought you together.
Your current relationship is not the one you wanted – everything has soured.
Family cohesion has ceased to exist.
Your wife says she is not happy anymore.
Your relationship and communication have become intolerable. Now, your wife misunderstands everything you say or do and is threatening to divorce you if nothing changes.
She thinks you don’t care about her or the kids’ welfare.
Your older children avoid you in the house – and say you are insensitive to their needs. You are highly disappointed because you think your wife is brainwashing your children against you.
Hard work is not enough.
You have worked all these many years to provide for your family. Now, this is what you get.
They think you are the problem. All efforts to make things work harmoniously have failed.
Now you are upset, anxious, and depressed and can hardly sleep at night.
Your spouse avoids communication with you and goes out without consulting you.
You are afraid your marriage is slipping out of your hands. You don’t want a divorce; you are ready to reach out for help to redeem your marriage and your family.
Finding a resolution is difficult.
Sharing your relationship problems with friends is impossible. What would they think?
The two of you tried couples therapy in the past, but you dropped out along the way.
It’s another year, and no solution is in sight. You need change, but your ability to resolve this problem on your own seems impossible.
Where do you go from here?
Counseling and therapy can help.
I love helping couples and families experiencing stress, worry, anxiety, or depression related to poor communication and disagreement in child training and discipline.
I LOVE couples who want to stay together, do not want a divorce, and need help to get love and joy back in their marriage.
Through counseling, couples learn to explore conflict resolution skills and positive communication strategies.
The first step is tracing where the relationship started and then focus on repairing the foundation.
Therapy provides healing.
With the right approach, couples and families can find healing. My approach is collaborative and requires identifying the core causes of conflict, followed by teaching proven tools and coping skills to manage distress without increasing anxiety and conflict.
While working with families, I have seen broken relationships heal and communication become positive, resulting in joy and excitement.
There is no amount of money large enough to pay for recovering a broken marriage or a precious family. My greatest joys are seeing a couple restored to their first love and a family kept together.
Let’s change the focus and find a solution.
We can work together to find family cohesion, enhance communication, and address issues that are causing increased stress.
Couples and families with whom I have worked leave therapy feeling stronger, full of energy, and empowered to resolve conflict without increasing distress.
Give your marriage and family a chance to survive.
