Couples & Marriage Counseling
Being in a relationship with decreased joy and sex life is something nobody is prepared to deal with. Increased resentment makes it harder to community and you feel you can only survive if you seek help from a third party.
Audrey believes that quality couples counseling does not directly aim to fix a relationship, but rather uses the relationship’s issues to elicit individual personal development: yielding a better relationship experience. With this approach, each member of the couple can cease to center how their partner is failing them and redirect their focus to their own behavioral progress.
As a Gottman trained clinician, Audrey will begin by going through your relationship & family history, values, and day to day rituals so that she may develop a map of all of the inherited successes and stressors her couple has acquired throughout the years. Afterwards, Audrey will infuse communication exercises, reflective reasoning, and psychoeducation to maximize your ability to achieve a mutually validating relationship experience.
