I work with a combination of psycho-therapeutic and psycho-educational approaches.  This means at times therapy will be the focus in the session, and this may include uncovering and sharing feelings, clarifying beliefs, and recognizing unhealthy patterns, while at other times education will be the focus in the session, meaning learning new concepts, practicing skills, and debriefing application of skills and concepts outside of sessions may be the primary focus. These two approaches are necessary in order to compliment the couple’s progress by unpacking and processing existing challenges while also growing and evolving the relationship by adding new insights and abilities.
