You deserve better!  Extraordinary Relationship Happiness is possible!

 
 

To get there, you both need to:

  • Embrace a total commitment to transforming your relationship by leaving your ego behind, letting go of the need for control, and welcoming in a new level of closeness through conversations.

  • Allow space for more pleasure in your lives by focusing your energy and intention away from negativity, stonewalling, and criticism and into creating positivity, connection, and intimacy.

  • Get a clear vision of how your communication is now, how you want it to be, what’s been stopping you, and how to get there.

No matter if. . .

  • You are newly in a relationship and struggling to communicate or have been together for years and fighting all the time;

  • You are busy professionals wondering how to balance the time and energy needed for communication in your relationship or are retired and have too much time on your hands;

How I know I can help you?

I have extraordinary training and experience

I have an MA in Developmental Psychology, post-graduate training as a Marriage and Family Therapist, and my PhD is in Interdisciplinary Studies, with emphasis on coaching, change, and dialogue. 

I’m committed to helping couples learn to communicate in positive loving ways that eliminates constant arguing, allowing for connection so that passion and intimacy increase. Effective communication fosters a commitment to trust so power struggles and fear stop.

I use methods rooted in human development, and psychology. I share proven techniques from the field of marriage and relationship therapy and coaching as well as from the new field of brain neuropsychology. 

After building a strong and happy relationship my husband and I enjoy, I love to support my clients to transform their own relationships into one of clear communication, loving connection, and faithful commitment. The first step is to develop effective communication habits.

It took me a failed marriage to understand couples even better.

For 27 years I was in a very joyless marriage where the only plus side were my two children. Being a relationship expert already I tried everything I thought I knew to make things better. No matter how hard I tried, nothing worked!

I could help others, but I didn’t seem to be able to help myself. Until I realized that in a relationship, both people needed to be willing to commit to showing up, owning your own issues, and growing up together. My ex-husband was not willing to do that. Therefore, I finally recognized I needed to leave our relationship.

It was not easy to feel I had fail at what I was an expert in. Yet, fast forward several years to what are the best years of my life. I met a wonderful man who was committed to us showing up, owning up, and growing up together.

We have been married for more than 10 years now and our communication, connection, and joy only gets better each year. Choosing total commitment and trust, open communication and intimacy, and making connection and passion a priority in our relationship has made a world of difference.

You get to experience the result!

That’s how my From Bickering to Understanding: Effective Communication Strategies For Lovers was born. Now that I have found how an extraordinary love relationship is possible by combining my knowledge, training, and years of working with couples with my personal experience, I want to share it with the world!
