Marital/Couples Therapy

Before making the decision to separate, marital/couples therapy is an excellent tool for helping couples work on improving the marital relationship.  In marital therapy, the therapist assists the individuals in hearing and understanding each other better, and looking for small steps each can take that will mend the hurts from the past.  Love isn't enough!  Marriage takes lots of positive energy, good communication, and learning to deal with differences.

Roslyn Zinner, LCSW-C has specialized in working with couples for much of her 33 years of clinical practice.  She has provided couples therapy for the past 17 years, and prior to that served as the first Coordinator of the Interfaith Marriage Program at Jewish Family Services in Baltimore, Maryland.  Ms. Zinner draws heavily from the work of John Gottman, Ph.d., who has done more qualitative research on what makes a marriage work than any other person in the US.

Divorce is a big step with a profound impact on every arena of one's life, and shouldn't be taken until all other avenues for repair have been explored and exhausted.  Call for an appointment to explore how your relationship can be restored to the way it was in happier times.
