Marriage & Couples Counseling

All relationships go through a natural flow of connection, disconnection, and repair.

​For many couples, there is too much disconnection, too little connection, and not enough of the skills needed for repair.

Paul helps clients develop deeper relationships in which they are both more cherished and cherishing using Relational Life Therapy, a model created by couples therapy expert Terry Real author of "The New Rules of Marriage" (www.terryreal.com). Unlike the neutrality of traditional couples therapy, RLT gets to the heart of relationship issues, addressing problems directly and teaching couples to be truly intimate. Paul trained directly with Terry Real and is a certified Relational Life Therapist.

“Intimate connectedness is our birthright and optimal state. The cure for addiction and emotional problems is intimacy". – Terry Real
