Do you miss the closeness you once had? Are you afraid that divorce may be on the horizon? I can help you renew a close loving relationship with your partner. I can teach you how to resolve conflicts effectively and reduce the likelihood of strong negative emotions getting out of control. I can teach you and your partner to speak and listen to each other's feelings more effectively than ever before. You and your partner will "really know" that you have been understood. I call this approach, "Loving Connection." It is based, in large part, upon the wisdom in John Gottman's book, "The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work." Then I help couples enrich their relationship by using "The Five Love Languages: How to Express Heartfelt Commitment to Your Mate" by Gary Chapman. The "Love Languages" are 1. Words of Affirmation, 2. Quality Time, 3. Receiving Gifts, 4. Acts of Service and 5. Physical Touch. The challenge is to find and enhance your partner's preferred "Love Language."
