Couples Therapy
Dr. Victoria's approach to couples sessions.
Factors of everyday life can put an abundant strain on a relationship. Severe stressors may include resentment, infidelity, intimacy issues, lack of trust, and miscommunication. When problems go unresolved, or a partner is suffering from mental illness or health complications, one can feel helpless or have feelings of guilt or shame. Communicating effectively on both parts can alleviate emotional anxiety from subjects of all kind.
Couples often seek couples or marriage counseling when the relationship is at a standstill, or if they are unsure whether or not the relationship is worth salvaging. This type of therapy can benefit families with children who have been affected by relationship issues such as divorce, and confront the source of the conflict.
Dr. Victoria's Approach
In my decades of experience as a couples therapist, I have learned to be an impartial guest to ensure everyone feels heard. I have taught and practiced a wide variety of therapeutic approaches including Jungian, Gestalt, cognitive behavioral therapy, existential therapy and life coach skills. A seasoned therapist like myself uses a customized blend of these approaches to assist you in achieving your goals. If a couple wants to communicate more effectively and make some changes in their sexual relationship, we will focus on strategy and skills.
I have written several books specifically addressing common intimacy issues that can cause damage to couples' relationships. I encourage you to download a free mini e-book available in my shop (Finding Each Other Again) to get a sample of my approach.
