Welcome                                                                              

                    

Couples:

 Whether you are coming in for individual counseling or as a couple, our goal is to understand how you are feeling, identify areas of focus and provide tools and coping skills to heal the pain of feeling unheard or disrespected in your relationship to the person you love.  Part of healing infidelity is talking about the questions your partner might have and work on a new beginning.  Some of our primary areas in counseling is  communicating feelings and needs, de-escalation techniques and active listening skills. Helping both to feel appreciated for what you do inside and outside the home and as a parent.  Between sessions, assignments are defined to help you practice in your everyday life what you have just learned to improve your relationship, to enforce your boundaries with your partner of family or improve productivity at work. 

We specialize in couples through several different aspects that include talk therapy, solution focused therapy, effective communication, conflict resolution, reducing defensiveness and/or criticism  We help to  identify your love languages and that of your partner, underlying triggers, wants and needs. Let's work together in bringing back the joy and intimacy that helped you fall in love.  If there has been infidelity, let's heal and trust again. 

TEENS:

With teens we help them express how they feel, identify if their procrastination is really ADHD and not that they are ignoring you or forgetting each time you ask them to do something. We are catching adult ADHD , which could be the reason your partner forgets things and procrastinates.

From the owner:

As the the owner of LMC,  I am trained in Gottman Level 3 for couples. Gottman is well known in our industry as one of the best therapies for couples.  I also practice Solution Focused Therapy which can reduce tension and increase partner satisfaction and intimacy, making a difference in a short amount of time. Reducing anger gets you heard and when you are heard you get results and feelings of respect and appreciation. I want to help you feel better asap because you have already have too much on your plate to stress about your relationship as well. 

Individually :

We can explore your needs and goals and work towards them. Lately, anxiety has been on the increase after Covid which has impacted many due to isolation and worry off the unknown. We can help reduce anxiety and depression with EMDR therapy and CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy)  to change one's inner thoughts to a “can do” attitude and heal from the “Im sorry you never got growing up because the abuse and neglect was not ok as a child and definitely not now as well as an adult in a relationship. The need to feel loved, respected and valued could still be a childhood need that never healed.
