Our Approach To Helping Couples With Marital and Family Therapy
From the onset of couples counseling and throughout treatment, I have taken a neutral stance.
You two are the experts in your lives, and it’s my job to understand how you experience the relationship together. I must be prepared for your appointment, starting with beginning your session on time. I take great pride in being punctual.
I’ve been an anxious client in a waiting room too, and I want you to know my career doesn’t make my time more valuable than yours. I learn as much as possible when a new client enters my office.
When I meet with a couple, I imagine the space between them on the sofa as my client. How can I better close that space between them? Finding the “wrong” person in the relationship is not my job.
We all interact in relationships in a way that makes sense through our perspective – a fact that rarely makes as much sense to our partners. My focus lies in helping to decipher those interactions and restore the connection.
I use a model of therapy called Emotionally Focused Therapy. If you are not an “emotional” person, don’t worry, I’m not either.
The model is focused on eliciting experiential changes. Some therapy models concentrate on tools, homework, or communication styles. While those are helpful for some, it depends heavily on actually using the tools.
In the heat of an argument, the successful deployment of said tools isn’t likely. This often leaves couples frustrated and seeking marital and family therapy again.
