Good relationship skills are important whether you are in a couple , family or a therapy relationship. The essential components require direct yet warm and compassionate communication as well as the right skills and good training. As a systems thinking and trained Psychologist I look at your patterns and interactions in order to help you communicate more directly and resolve conflict in more constructive ways. My training with two of the top leaders in the field of couple and family therapy taught me the essential parts of good communication. The training techniques also taught me how to impart those skills with those I work with. Learning the basics sets you up with a strong foundation for improving your relationships and maintaining that change as well. My approach integrates teaching and coaching in a warm supportive environment to help you achieve the changes you desire.
