It Took Me A While To Become A Good Marriage Counselor

Marriage Counselor Some of the things they teach you as a marriage counselor in school don’t always work very well. Other things you may have discovered in 10 years of treating couples aren’t consistently effective. But I’ve been working and training in the Gottman Method Couples Therapy system for the past year, and I believe it really helps the couples I’ve seen.

Gottman Method Couples Therapy has evolved out of 40 years of research on why marriages succeed or fail, and developed into an effective counseling method that will give you tools and strategies to handle conflict in your marriage.

Here’s how it works:

Your First Assessment Session will be 90 minutes long. During that time, we will get to know each other. You will get to tell the story of your marriage, from both points of view, and express your areas of concern and your goals for treatment.

You will be asked to show me how you argue with each other, so that I can get some idea of your conflict styles. Then I will give you some written questionnaires to complete at home.

In the Second Assessment Session, I will meet individually with each of you to hear any concerns you may have, your thoughts, feelings and perceptions.

In the Final Assessment Session, we will all meet together, and I will give you my impressions and recommendations for treatment, and talk about your goals.

If we decide to work together, we will begin one hour sessions during which I will guide you and teach you how to handle conflict and the emotional flooding that comes out of it.

Throughout our work together, I welcome your feedback about what works and what doesn’t. And the timing and pacing of sessions will always be under your control.

I would like to offer you a free phone consultation
because I believe you should interview your therapist
to see if he or she would be a good match.

The Therapy Menu

Tailor your treatment
to meet your needs
and schedule:

The Assessment 90 Minute Session is $175. This plan is highly recommended for initial evaluations for couples, and individuals in crisis.

The Standard 50 Minute Session is $125. Suitable for individuals and couples who need less intense work.

The Tune-Up 30 Minute Session is $65. Good for renewing your skills, or for short-term coaching.

Save! Pre-pay for 5 regular sessions and get a 6th one free (which is a savings of $125, and a commitment to your marriage and counseling.)

Another Way to Save – Schedule your sessions for every other week, or for as often as you can afford.

All major credit cards, personal checks or cash accepted.

Why You Can’t Use Your Health Insurance:

Insurance companies will not pay for what they call “Relationship Diagnoses,” such as marital problems, family conflicts and career issues. They consider therapy for these problems to be “Elective Treatment” in the same sense that plastic surgery is elective, as compared to treatment for a disease. But you may be able to submit your bills for partial reimbursement. Just ask for a monthly statement.
