Marriage is one of the most complex relationships/interactions among 2 individuals. Almost 70% of marital/romantic relationships end up in divorce or rupture. People (no matter their gender, religion, socio-economic status, etc., etc..) must understand and be fully conscious of how their unresolved wounds and past traumas, difficult upbringing, their own temperaments and family patterns set unrealistic expectations of their partners that causes anguish and suffering in a relationship that is meant to cause joy. At Postive Principles I can guide you through Dialect Behavioral Therapy and the study of the family genogram to develop awareness of who you are and what it is you must solve to achieve your inner understanding and effective personal management so you can enter a romantic relationship conscious of how to manage your own deficiencies that has been causing lots of pain and ineffective behaviors in a relation. It is my expectation that once you enter that path you will at the end Life Happily ever after with your ideal Match but you must heal first and you must be willing to enter a self discovery journey called therapy, which at times is painful and at times is joyful. Change is inevitable and change starts with YOU.
