I offer marriage counselling services and advice for couples to help prevent marriage
breakdown & restore love & committment and help deal with the challenges marriages
face.
Marriage is worth fighting for!
Some people think they will end this marriage/relationship & find another person they can build
their lives with, however in most cases their problems are just taken into the next relationship
resulting in the same outcome ...
I encourage you to face & deal with the issues here & now & fall back in love with your
husband or wife....We need to learn how to love!
Love is not just an emotion, but a committment!
Marraige breakdown, seperation & divorce is NOT a natural experience
& should not be taken lightly...Individuals are hurt & the effects are long
lasting in a marriage/relationship breakdown effecting you & your children.
(if any)
Most likely every married couple will experience a hard times in their
relationship at some stage.
Maybe you are having trouble dealing with a specific problem which yiou are facing, or perhaps
your individual goals and desires in life have grown apart. Perhaps the usual stresses
of life are taking a toll and you are arguing all the time, or perhaps as a couple have grown
apart and are hardly talking....there are many issues & reasons to see a marriage counselor!
It can be a shocking experience to a married couple to realise that the
honeymoon period is over...
and to feel that they may have lost what they once had. When connection feels like it's breaking down
& what they felt toward each other & how they treated is no longer the same as when they first met,
conflict is bound to occur. Repeated arguments and lost intimacy, boredom, resentment, ange & mistrust
can creep into a marriage until there is very little left of the love and respect that brought you together in
the first place....the longer this is allowed & dismissed they greater apart couples
drift & begin to build seperate lives........Sound Familiar?
Taking two people who have committed themselves to a lifelong commitment, then placing
them into cohabitation with each other does not automatically mean that the relationship
will be free of conflict & they will live happily ever after, no matter how much these two
people love and care for each other. There will without any doubt be disagreements and
fights, so learning how to deal with & resolve these issues are critical skills & committments that
must be learnt & recognised & are very important for a successful marriage
to blossom & for two people to remain in love...... rather than one filled with bitter feelings
resentment, unhappiness & anger....My marriage counseling & advice will help you in these areas.
Why Do People Come to Marriage Counseling?
Couples decide to come & talk with a marriage counselor for a variety of reasons & with many issues to work out.
these include & are not limited to.....
Communication & conflict resolution, sexual & intimacy issues, fighting and anger problems, identity and role
conflict, dependence vs. independence, religion, ethics and values, jealousy, parenting,
infidelity, money and finances, addiction, family and in-law struggles, step family issues,
gender roles, infertility / adoption, lack of trust, jealousy, finacial difficulties, rearing children issues, decisions that
need to be made, & the list goes on & on!
Many couples seek marriage counseling that are in despair, hurting, angry &
frightened that their relationship is beyond help.
Their communications have broken down, trust has eroded and sex is almost nonexistent.

Many other couples come who have a fundamentally strong relationship but
may be facing a specific crisis and want the help & guidence of a marriage
counselor & receive marriage counseling & advice.
How I approach Counseling:
I am very involved in the session at all times and will honestly communicate to you what I see, feel and think.
I begin by establishing a vision for the relationship, which incorporates the ideals of both members.
My office/home becomes a safe haven, where problems can be discussed openly & hoenstly without fear of pain,
judgment or retribution. ...I will identify the weaknesses & attitudes that need to be dealt with & action that
needs to be taken & committments that need to be honestly & throughly adhered to.
As your marriage counselor I want to give you each a chance to educate me, one at a time, on how you argue or
handle conflicts. Every couple fights differently & reacts in different ways and most of the time what they’re fighting
about isn’t the real argument but often stems from other pain, rejection & hurt or some deeper frustration.
Many have brought hurt, pain & insucurities or other aquired emotional weaknesses/strenghths into the marriage
based on previous relationships or family upbringings....... or lack of!
As a marriage counselor, what do I expect from you as my client?
An open mind & attitude & a serious commitment to our work, an ability to be open when looking what you
bring into the relationship & what your responsibility is within that relationship and a commitment to
altering your own ineffectual behaviors. Responsibility must be taken where there has been mistakes & forgivness
sought & forgivness received & given from each individuel. When these conditions are met & sort for, there is an
excellent chance that I can not only help you get your relationship back on track, but take you to an
even stronger place of love & committment that you have ever experienced.......
One you may not have ever imagined was possible
