Relationship Issues

Couple Relationship Issues

We are made to be in relationship with others. Relationships provide love, comfort, support and a sense of belonging. Although, relationships can be the source of pain and frustration. The stress and challenges of life will cause conflict within relationships that at times may feel impossible to resolve.

Are you struggling with your spouse, family member, friend, coworker or a dating relationship? Do you feel anxious or awkward in social settings? Are you desiring to date, but not sure how to date in a healthy way?

Relationship counseling is beneficial if you are experiencing one or more of these feelings in your relationships:

  • Feeling neglected
  • Feeling disrespected by insulting or hurtful remarks
  • Not following through with commitments
  • Being manipulated through guilt, blame or shame
  • Wanting to withdrawal
  • Excessive criticism
  • Controlling your life
  • Awkward in social situation
  • Dating without success

Benefits of addressing relationship issues:

  • Identify old habits of behavior that are not productive
  • Learn healthy boundaries and how to use them
  • Better communication expressing your thoughts and feelings without feeling guilty
  • Learn effective conflict resolution
  • Understand the importance of forgiveness
  • Experience quality time
  • Gain respect
  • Make decisions and strategies for going forward

Can individual counseling help with relationship issues? Absolutely. A change in one person effects the dynamics of relationship resulting in positive change. Schedule an appointment today.

Common Questions

Why do people seek therapy?

People choose therapy for many reasons. Some are facing an unexpected crisis, such as a divorce, a death in the family or a dramatic lifestyle change. Others want to explore their personal attitudes, emotions or childhood issues in an effort to launch positive changes in their lives. Still others are trying to conquer stress, anxiety or other problems that are preventing them from finding the joy in their daily lives.

What can therapy do for me?

Therapy can help you to find solutions to problems that are holding you back in life. Through counseling, you can explore issues from your past and begin to set goals for your future. Therapy can help you to clear your mind so that you can realistically appraise your life and make positive changes. You also can learn effective problem-solving techniques, helpful communication methods and other valuable skills.

What can I expect during a session?

Therapy gives you an opportunity to speak to a caring professional about your concerns and begin taking steps to resolve your problems. Counseling sessions are 50 minutes in length, and weekly visits typically are recommended to start and can be adjusted based on your needs. It is important for you to spend time between sessions working on the issues discussed each week.

Christian Counsellor Jamie

"Two years ago my life came to a crashing downfall. I was filled with pain, guilt, and confusion of the things that had occurred in my life . A friend recommended that I seek out a therapist to help me during this time. I was very resistant- I never would have consider "ME" the type to sit on a couch and discuss my life's issues. Nevertheless, I did and I found Jamie. Honestly the pain was so piercing that I didn't care what Jamie had to say. I sat on the couch week after week, in a complete daze; sometimes, even being very antagonistic to Jamie. I vocally questioned if she could help someone like me. After about six months, the answer became so clear and it was yes. Jamie worked through my hurt and my frustrations. She listened without judgment. When I gave up, she fought for my healing. Jamie's tenacious spirit allowed me to gradually open up. I am very blessed to have a therapist who is passionate and concerned about my well- being."

"I met Jamie 4.5 years ago when some significant changes were happening in my life, and I was at a crossroads needing a little help. The very first thing I noticed with Jamie was the calm energy. So many therapists/counselors come across with the whole clinical approach. Jamie is totally opposite. She cares and you know it the minute you meet her. If you are in a place in life where you need a little help, Jamie is the one to call."
"I began working with Jamie in 2005 when my personal life was at an all time low. Jamie's caring and unique approach to counseling has been a tremendous blessing in my life. Through divorce, death, and a mid-life career change, Jamie worked with me to embrace my core values, accept myself, and encouraged me to make my life into what I wanted it to be. The tools Jamie helped me develop have truly changed the way I live my life. My current happiness and success can be directly traced to my work with Jamie."

"I started seeing Jamie in 2014. She helped me get through the toughest time in my life. Without her counseling and support I do not know where I would be in life. Jamie listens and she offers expert counseling and therapy. Jamie helped me see what the issues were in my life and then she helped me process those issues. She helped me develop a plan for the future. It does not matter if you or male or female, Jamie is very easy to talk to about any issue. She saved my life."
"When I walked into Jamie's office, I knew I had come to the right place. My personal life was a mess and I began looking for a therapist that was kind, loving, intuitive and someone I would feel comfortable telling some difficult things to. She is the one!!! Every time I left her office I felt like I had accomplished something and things were so much more clear. She helped me with the many changes going on in my life and I now love that person in the mirror….I highly recommend Jamie."
"I started seeing Jamie after experiencing some personal life issues. Jamie is a great listener and she has the knowledge and experience to counsel you during the tough times of life. Jamie is very compassionate but she also is unbiased when needed."
