Welcome to San Jose Couples Counseling
We've all heard the statistics: around 50% of all marriages end in divorce rate, and more and more adults are staying single.
But what does this mean to you and to your relationship? What we all need to know is why relationships end and what we can do to
prevent it. Just as prevention is good for our physical health it is also good for the health of our relationships.
San Jose Couples Counseling help couples
There are few things are as valuable and sustaining as a good, long marriage. Few things are sadder than feeling distant from your partner.
I am often the second or third marriage counselor a couple has tried, and often hear that our work together makes changes that
didn't happen in earlier therapeutic work.
San Jose Couples Counseling help families
Instead of letting you have the disagreement that you have in your kitchen,
I actively intervene to help you start having more satisfying, effective communication. It's not enough just to work on solving problems.
I help couples find more day to day marital intimacy and often provide strategies for change on your very first visit.

How San Jose Couples Counseling Works
San Jose Couples Counseling can help you
I use a therapeutic approach in couples counseling called "Solution-Focused Brief Couples Therapy" or "Brief Couples Therapy" for short.
Brief Couples Therapy generally tends to be future-oriented, goal-oriented, and solution-focused.
Brief Couples Therapy is based on four stages of therapy; awareness and education, moving towards closeness rather than defensiveness,
emphasizing the positive, and rehearsal of newly learned skills.
San Jose Couples Counseling can help you
Brief Couples Therapy helps to solve common relationship struggles in a quick yet satisfying time frame. When seeking counseling, couples
may be arguing, bickering, and constantly triggering each other, or they may be disconnected,
feeling alone, and barely speaking. The common thread in couples seeking services is that their relationship is no longer a safe,
loving, and enjoyable space. Brief Couples Therapy addresses all the problems that frustrated couples face, including:
- Lack of satisfaction and enjoyment with your partner
- Constant bickering and fighting
- Infidelity
- Differing ideas of roles, rules, and expectations
- Difficulty transitioning to a parenting relationship
- Excessive anger
- Inherent differences in lifestyle decisions (having children, religion, career)
- Extended family conflicts
- Inability for your partner to get why you are hurting
- Having the same arguments over and over again
- Keeping the relationship functioning through one partners’ addiction, past abuse, or chronic illness
- Lack of intimacy
I use Brief Couples Therapy to restore the strength and vitality your relationship once had, and show you how to create a conscious
partnership focused on valuing each other’s experience.

My goal in couples counseling is to make progress in the very first session. I do this for two primary reasons.
First, because the coouple and/or family are suffering to some degree and are seeking relief. Secondly, I believe that both parties need to
see that they can resolve problems, compromise, and reduce conflict before any more damage is done. As resentment builds in a relationship,
overcoming problems becomes increasingly difficult so it's important to act as swiftly as possible.
