Your relationship used to be full of love and laughter

Remember when you met and fell in love?

Nothing could be more exciting and fun than spending time together.

You made time for each other and couldn't wait to be together.

You opened your heart and found someone ready to respond in kind.

You could talk for hours and would look forward to any excuse to be together.

Somehow things changed

Maybe things have become dull and routine. Somehow it became difficult for the two of you to spend time together. You no longer feel any connection. Your sex life may be suffering. Your partner doesn't seem to respond when you try and spend time together, or maybe your partner is demanding and intrusive, and this is deeply affecting how you feel.

Perhaps you're fighting and you don't know what to do to make things better. Maybe you've been fighting for a while and each of you seems to be feeling more resentment and more hopelessness each time.

Maybe you or your partner has had an affair, or is turning to the Internet for pornography. Maybe your relationship is affected by alcohol, drug, or sexual addictions.

Maybe you've reach a point of crisis where you're considering moving out and calling it all off. You've been trying to work things out. You've had long discussions. You've talked with friends and family. Maybe you saw a therapist who didn't seem to know how to help, or you've had bad experiences with therapists in the past. Maybe you're a man who finds it difficult to describe your feelings. You don't want to give up, but you're not sure what to do.

I can help

I'm an Oakland relationship expert. I know how to help couples rebuild their love and trust to have satisfying, life-long relationships. I use the latest empirically proven and research based methods to put your relationship back on track. I'm a California Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (MFT).

I help people regain the love the once had by working through:

  • Arguing and conflict
  • Cheating, infidelity, & jealousy
  • Anger, mistrust, resentment, dislike, & hate
  • Blaming, denial, nagging, & avoidance
  • Problems with money & finances
  • Separation & divorce
  • Sexual addiction & Internet pornography addiction

Therapy does cost money, but it is far less expensive than a divorce, new living arrangements, child custory arrangements, and the considerable pain and suffering of ending a relationship. You owe it to yourself and your partner to make sure you've done everything you can. You owe it to yourself to make an appoint to see me in Oakland.
