Relationship distress is some of the worst pain in life. We all long to feel seen, heard and valued by the person we love. When that connection is stressed or you cannot feel the safety and closeness you once felt, it feels like your world is falling apart. In an effort to protect your relationship so it doesn't blow up, you walk on eggshells, avoid each other or shut down.
Or you try to talk, you try to be heard- only to have arguments which lead to further hurt, and the fear that you will never feel close again. No matter how hard you try, how hard your partner tries, the awful cycles continue. No matter what you do, nothing seems to help make your relationship feel safe, loving and secure.

I've known Sandy and Douglas as colleagues for several years now. They are highly experienced and highly skilled marriage counselors. Their training in EFT (Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples) seals the deal in my book - it's a great approach for getting couples reconnected, and has a lot of heart. It's not just about rehashing the problems forever and ever. If you need a couples therapist, and want someone skilled and experienced, I would not hesitate in suggesting you look at Sandy and/or Douglas.
