You’re ready for relief. You’re a couple that’s ready to stop feeling disconnected.

My Goal is to Work Myself Out of a Job
Couples come to Embrace Renewal Therapy because the communication is lacking and their needs aren’t being met. They leave knowing how to compromise without feeling like they lost a part of themselves and healing those relationship wounds that have caused resentment.
Here’s how:
-
If you're looking for a magical elixir made in somebody's basement, I'm not the therapist for you. I work from a modality that is based on more than 4 decades of science and research. The goal will be to learn how to communicate better as parents and how to improve your relationship after kids. We'll focus on actual solutions like:
Tackling the root of your fight patterns and finding ways to compromise.
How to bring up an emotional topic without starting a fight.
How to apologize after a fight.
How to help your partner feel seen and heard.
Finding adjustments that need to be made in the relationship, so it lasts a lifetime.
-
I won’t be afraid to tell you my perspective or to compassionately call you out when needed. I'm not going to be mean about it. But I am going to be real with you. Let's call it like it is - this is not a one-party issue. If you are looking for someone who is just going to take your side, I'm not your therapist. My client is the relationship because it needs an ally!

Please see the coat check at the front door. Our time will be free of pot-stirring, culturally mindful, LGBTQIA+ affirming, and sex positive.
