By far the most common request I hear from couples/relationships is the need for healthier communication and conflict resolution. Escalation can happen so quickly when we are entrenched in a pattern of communication that blames, judges, criticizes, defends and even wounds.

The result of harmful communication is that everyone involved feels less heard and more activated – cracks in the relationship form and grow quickly into rifts that can’t be closed without help.

Therapy can help close these rifts and give you the skills you need to prevent similar ruptures in the future.
