Ellen Schrier, LPCC
Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor | Claimed

Are you wanting a happier more loving and connected marriage, but don't know how? Marriage counseling is really about you, the kind of marraige you want and what you are willing to do to make those dreams come true. I believe couples therapy is collaborative in nature and we work together to produce the best results. I can help you achieve a happier and more successful marriage including more effective couple communication and improved conflict resolution skills. Couples learn to repair, restore and renew their relationships. We identify patterns that are keeping you stuck and help you learn easy effective ways to improve your communication and encourage your sense of fun and playfulness that you experienced early on in your relationship. Couples can often become distressed when their friendship is weakened by poor communication or that is lacking repect and admiration which can result in criticism, defensiveness, stonewalling and contempt. I have been trained in the Gottman Method Therapy and Emotionally Focused Therapy and use those approaches regularly in my counseling sessions.
