Female Therapists in Johnson City, NY

As a couples therapist who has received training from experts John & Julie Gottman, I help couples understand conflict: what conflict is as a natural occurrence and that while conflict between them may seem perpetual, it does not have to be a guarantee for separation. My role in treating a couple is to equip them with concepts & tools that help turn conflict into insight & to view conflict as a unique means to come closer to one another's feelings and experiences with vulnerability & friendship. Each person brings a unique set of life experiences, together we treat the wounds and address the needs of the relationship.
