YOUR 1st SESSION

Listen carefully 

To your relationship situation, and what you are wanting to do about it – if you know;

Both viewpoints on what is going on, that is not working for you.

Provide the help or advice you seek to take the first steps to bring harmony and love back into your relationship.

Provide opportunity 

For you to discover, and get help for, the underlying causes of challenges you face in your relationship;

Assist you to gain insight into the hidden dynamics of your relationship, how these are affecting your relationship right now, and what must be done if the change is to occur;

Provide hope and strategies

As to how to get your relationship back on track, including a step by step outline for moving forward.

​Create a safe environment for the ongoing exploration of your relationship/marriage. This safety must extend to the situation in your own home.

Explain 

The therapeutic model being used, and why it works so well.

Give you tasks you can do between the sessions that will help you to gain insight into, and make changes to, your relationship.

Bring your attention to relevant articles on Jeff’s websites that provide further insight into your situation, and tools to help you improve it.

Confidentiality

My office is a safe place. My intention here is to reassure you that everything we share during your time with me will be kept only between us. As all therapists do, I must only share your first name with my supervisor and no more than that. The anonymous conversation is required for a session to be fully effective.
