Relationship Help

If your heart is breaking and you are drowning in a sea of mistrust, broken promises and heartache, I have a plan to help you change the cycle of frustration and pain in your relationship. My plan to help your tumultuous relationship will send you on a path to start over and on towards reconciliation and wholeness. Sometimes, a third, neutral party can help you see beyond the immediate pain and frustration. 
Let’s get you started now, before any more destructive and painful days go by.

Abusive or Destructive Relationships

If you are in a destructive relationship or feel as if you are being abused in some way, I can help. My ten- session plan of learning and life coaching will give you the tools you need to either stay in that relationship in a healthy and better way, or leave that relationship in a safe way. If your spouse or partner won’t participate in marriage coaching, then this is the plan for you. 
Book an appointment now before you suffer any longer.

Pre-marital Education

Save your marriage before it starts. Pre-marital education is so vital to building a strong marriage and many ignore this important step only to wish they had learned the tools for success after their relationships faces difficulty. I believe in good preparation for a lasting marriage.

The State of Georgia offers a discount for marriage licenses if you attend pre-marital education.  The marriage application fee is waived when the couple seeking the license has completed a qualifying premarital education program. Premarital education includes at least six hours of instruction involving marital issues, which include conflict management, communication skills, financial responsibilities, child and parenting responsibilities, and extended family roles. The premarital education must be completed within 12 months prior to the application for a marriage license and the couple must complete premarital education together.

Anger Management 

If you have been court ordered to take anger management classes, have an anger assessment or need ways to manage your anger and make better choices, I offer help.

Whether in an individual session or a class of less than four people, help is available. Classes and sessions are flexible and affordable.

Anger is triggered by many different past and present issues and fears. In our sessions, you will learn:

• What makes you angry and why

• How to listen to and control your emotions in a healthy way

• How to show common sense when coping with anger

• Managing anger and conflict

• Tools you need to calm aggression and free yourself from frustrations and irritations that trigger anger

Destructive relationships are changed to constructive ones when anger takes a back seat to other more positive emotions. Understanding your choices and how to control anger, can change legal, marital and work struggles with only a few sessions of anger management. Everyday struggles can be calmed and relationships improved with anger management skills.

Do people tell you that you are angry, but you are not certain why they would say that? Does anger feel like a habit that you just can’t break? Do you suffer with jealous anger or mistrust? Does anger overwhelm you fast and get you into legal trouble and domestic violence issues? Are you overly sensitive and get hurt easily? Do you frighten others with your angry outbursts? Are you prone to physical fights and hurting others? If you can say yes to any of these questions, then anger management classes or sessions will help. Don’t delay. Call or email today to start getting help.

Classes and sessions are affordable and flexible. Call or email today to find out when you can schedule your chance for change and a better life.
