Relationship Therapy

for issues other than couples work

Troubles can come into all sorts of relationships from time to time. You may have hurt feelings with a sibling, conflict with a friend, misunderstanding with a co-worker, or a break-down of communication with your teen or adult child.

God always longs for us to discover the pathway to reconciliation. For those who sincerely want to recreate connection, God has provided the means to do so. My practice is dedicated to assist you in rebuilding safe and durable ties to those you live or work with. I have twenty years of experience, skills, and very practical methods to support this work, as well as access to a wide variety of resources for consultation.

Intentional Dialogue is a fabulous method for disarming conflict discussions. This partnered with the positive strategies of Appreciative Inquiry helps people over and over to turn the corner on dead-end quarreling. Life is too precious to stay mired in stagnant, mucky stalemates.

Come explore how techniques such as Guided Visualizing, Positive Inquiry, Empathic Understanding and Mirroring can transform a difficult relationship into a delightful one!
