What we offer in this arena is unique, unparalleled and head & shoulders above the rest! We know that a healthy couple is the basis for a healthy family and you will get two therapists for the price of one! A good deal by anyone’s standards! Al and Carol work with couples as a couple. Our experience has taught us that this provides balance to the session and helps couples move through the process with more openness to change.

Our goal is to help couples enjoy true intimacy with one another and increase the odds that they will experience the long-term compatibility and relational bliss they have dreamed of. By helping couples understand how their past influences their present, we can help them avoid the predictable pitfalls. With that understanding individuals can deepen their emotional connection and strengthen their level of commitment.

  • Have you wondered if divorce may be the only way to feel better? Have you given up on the possibility of the dreams you once shared with your spouse? This experience is designed to help couples move from the “freeze” response, sort through pertinent issues and find the hope they may have lost.
• That’s it -- I’m out!
  • You may have decided that divorce is the only option, so now let’s help the kids! No parent wants their child to suffer and yet we all know that children cannot help but experience a negative impact when the two people they love and depend on most in this world, separate and begin new lives apart from one another. This experience provides an opportunity for parents to “lay down arms” and collaborate in an effort to focus on and help their children during this difficult and stress filled time.
