Relationship & Marriage Counseling
When someone deeply listens to you
it is like holding out a dented cup you’ve had since childhood and watching it fill up with cold, fresh water.
When it balances on the top of the brim, you are understood. When it overflows and touches your skin, you are loved…
When someone deeply listens to you
your bare feet are on the earth
and a beloved land that seemed distant,
is now at home within you.

Of course you do!

Your relationship is precious. Amidst the “dust of daily living” a strong partnership makes you braver, kinder, more compassionate, AND helps you live longer by boosting your immune system!
But you struggle. You hurt each other. You forget to make up. Your heart aches; you feel angry but you say nothing. You don’t want to be vulnerable. Yet you crave to let go and admit your needs. Of course you do. You’re human.
Conflict is normal. You are two different people. What did you think? That it was supposed to be “nice” all the time?
Even healthy couples have problems. It’s a normal part of being in relationship. We can help you with our special approach to individual relationship counseling and couples counseling.
Perhaps you are struggling with sexual issues? Maybe you want better couples communication, more passion, joy and intimacy? Often, a long-term partnership starts to feel “old”, “boring”, and “routine”. We wake up one day and wonder where the romance went and what happened to the person “I fell in love with” way back when.

Our specialty is helping people in relationship become the healthy individuals and couples they have always wanted to be. In addition to our private marriage counseling retreats, we are both in private practice, working separately and together, with couples and individuals all over the world—supporting them to increase connection, deepen their communication, heal from extramarital affairs, resolve sexual issues, and, often, for new couples, begin life together with skill, and understanding about how a good relationship really works.
Our counseling practices are now primarily on the phone or by Skype; people who live in our area (southern Colorado) come to our offices for face-to-face appointments.
Our relationship counseling and couples counseling approach is a unique combination of educating you about communication skills and behaviors, helping you practice those skills, and facilitating you to grow yourself to become the partner/person you would like to be in all your relationships. We are each trained in coaching and psychotherapy modalities as well as specific couples counseling techniques, so we combine our personal experience in relationship, as well as our professional training.
