Couples
Couples attend therapy for different reasons including emotional distance, lack of intimacy, communication and problem-solving difficulties, problems to work together, infidelity, lack of acceptance of each other's differences, and control issues among others. My approach to couple's therapy includes interventions that promote assertive communication, couple cohesion, acceptance and encouragement of emotional expression, improvement of problem solving and coping skills, and enduring commitment to the relationship. Being satisfied with a couple or marital relationship has been associated with a greater psychological and physical well-being.
