About
Thirty years of experience has taught me that every client's situation or problem is unique, but there is always hope for a solution or better outcome once the client and I, in collaboration, find their inner strength and resilience to tap into.

I use cognitive behavioral therapy, emphasizing effective communication and appropriate behavior during said communication. I like to give “homework” exercises for the couple to work on during the week and bring back to the next session. Sometimes these exercises are done collectively and sometimes individually.
I teach respectful, clear, and appropriate communication to enhance listening skills in each member of the couple. I also use homework exercises.
Progress can be measured from an established baseline and includes improved communication, lack of aggression towards one another, improved notice of and positive reinforcement of the opposite partner, and setting ground rules for bringing up problematic situations with one another.
Clients can set aside time for an at-home appointment with one another in a neutral area to take turns expressing, listening to, and reflecting on the thoughts and feelings of the opposite partner.
I encourage partners to acknowledge between one another that they both need assistance, with the help of the therapist, prioritizing their problems and working together. Understand that you do not have to be in individual therapy at the same time or prior to starting couples therapy.
Thriveworks Couples therapy helps couples work through their specific relationship issues. It is led by licensed professionals — often licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs) — who are experts in their field and best-equipped to help couples.

Couples therapy works by helping couples identify and better navigate their unique challenges. Following an initial assessment of the couple in terms of strengths and needs, the therapist would then discuss their therapeutic goals and any possible approaches or ways of working together as therapist and couple.Couples attend sessions together, whether they meet in person or by video. In addition to regular couples therapy sessions, each partner may also be asked to attend a few individual sessions to supplement their progress. This will allow their counselor to get to know each individual better, assess each of their personal needs, and develop the very best treatment plan moving forward.
Couples therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and via Online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you and your partner.
On average, couples attend couples therapy for 12 weeks. However, couples therapy may last longer or shorter, dependent on the couples’ needs, the challenges they’d like to work through, and the pace of their progress.
