Couldn't Resist!

Well, I couldn't resist adding a painting to this post. It just seems like blogs are supposed to have pictures!

So here is one that particularly relates to our topic here -- relationships. It's called "Love in Motion" Copyright 2008 by Sheryl Brown, All Rights Reserved.

If this is a style of art you enjoy, you might hop on over to http://www.sherylbrownart.blogspot.com/ and peruse the other paintings posted there!

I would love to hear any comments on how this bit of creativity affects your mood or thoughts.

Creative Relationships, here we come!

Welcome to my blog on creating better and more satisfying relationships!

One of my favorite things to do in this world is to help couples with their communication challenges. Couples meet me in my office in Issaquah for weekly 50 minute sessions (in most cases), and we dive right in to whatever is ailing them.

Of course, we do start out with the requisite paper work which includes a brief intake form, and a longer disclosure statement, so that you, the client, know your rights in this kind of setting. I take every consideration to protect your confidentiality, and make sure you understand what the exceptions are (for example, by law I am a mandated reporter if I suspect child abuse).

After the formalities, I invite people to relax and start wherever they feel the greatest need. Many times, this is a first time to the counselor scenario, and I like to tell folks that coming to see me as a therapist is like having a heartfelt conversation. The more you feel you can trust the counselor you have chosen, the better the work we can do.
