I use a strength- and client-based approach to counseling, that uses an eclectic combination of psychodynamic techniques that incorporate cognitive behavioral approaches. For couples stuck in unhealthy patterns, I challenge roles and patterns rooted in family of origin issues, and encourage individuals to modify their understanding of their and the other person's role. By identifying and building on core values for each person, I help couples define what they want their lives and marriage to look like, and help people create that.
