COMMUNICATION
Effective communication is indispensable to resolving relational conflicts. I will teach you communication skills that you can use even long after we conclude our sessions. Often, infidelity results from communication obstacles, so honesty and transparency are key. I'm here to help you achieve both.

RELATIONSHIP REMODELING™ centers on the process rather than content. I believe we all have the potential to create healthy relationships that meet our expectations. Relationship Remodeling enables you to distinguish between content and process, identify underlying patterns that contribute to the success or failure of your life goals, and reshape your relationship into one that fulfills your needs.

WHY CAN’T WE STOP FIGHTING?
Fighting is the outcome of being unable to manage differences, which is an essential component of any relationship. If you could sort out your differences dispassionately, there would be no fighting. Unfortunately, heated emotions, defensiveness, and aggression often accompany arguments, inducing the fight-or-flight hormonal response of adrenaline, cortisol, and norepinephrine, ultimately shutting down critical thinking and analysis. Mammals, including humans, are not wired to stay calm in the face of fear. In an intimate relationship, fear manifests itself in various forms, fighting being just one.

CALMING and QUIETING INTERVENTIONS
I will provide interventions that slow the pace of communication between you and your partner, allowing the positive resonance to reconnect you. I will teach you how to argue without sacrificing your dignity or mutual respect. Disagreements are inevitable and even helpful in a close relationship, but fighting never is.

What is essential to note about the fight-or-flight hormonal response is that your amygdala senses perceived danger even before you are conscious of it. Once activated, your brain loses the ability to evaluate the situation, and you are quickly propelled into an elevated emotional state. I will demonstrate how this process affects communication between partners and empower you to gain control over your emotions. Don’t suffer alone; let me help you.
