Let me help you create a relationship filled with love, trust, and intimacy.
At Northern Hope Counseling, I specialize in providing counseling services for couples and relationships, utilizing evidence-based approaches such as Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Gottman Method Couples Therapy. My goal is to help couples cultivate deeper connections, strengthen communication, and navigate challenges together, fostering greater intimacy and satisfaction in their relationship.
Understanding Relationships
Relationships are complex and can face various challenges, including communication issues, conflicts, infidelity, trust issues, and life transitions. These challenges can strain even the strongest of relationships, leading to feelings of frustration, loneliness, and disconnection.
My Approach
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT): EFT focuses on identifying and reshaping the emotional responses that drive patterns of interaction within relationships. By helping couples recognize and express their underlying emotions and attachment needs, EFT facilitates the creation of secure bonds and fosters deeper intimacy and connection.
Gottman Method Couples Therapy: Developed by Drs. John and Julie Gottman, this approach is grounded in decades of research on what makes relationships succeed or fail. Gottman Method therapy helps couples strengthen their friendship, manage conflicts constructively, and create shared meaning in their relationship, leading to greater trust and satisfaction.
