Couples Counseling Kansas City

The other critical ingredient you get with Couples Counselor Kansas City is neutral objectivity. My job is not to find the "bad guy" and change them, although many couples starting counseling believe their life would be better if their partner changed according to their specifications.

What makes things better between two people is their interpersonal skill level. Some of these skills are:

• Negotiate compromises both can live with.


• Use Fair Fighting Rules.


• Use the Slow Start to discuss hot topics.


• Never discuss hot topics without first agreeing on the time and place to do that.


• Listen before expecting to be heard.

As with any skill development, these require good coaching and practice to master.

More often than not, couples in relationship counseling need the tools and guidance to develop unique interpersonal skills which get them the amazing results they want.

Using tips and techniques overlooked by many other marriage therapists, Dr. Anderson works with you and your partner to make sense out of confusing emotional dynamics. At times it can be necessary to deal with relationship fears of intimacy, including sexual intimacy, or to counteract feelings of resentment and anger.

If people are having difficulty with each other in relationship, neither of them are bad people. Instead, they are using erroneous patterns of thought and action. Change the patterns a couple is using and their relationship changes for the better. I will show you how to do that.

Kansas City has been called "The City of Fountains" and for good reasons. There are over 200 beautiful fountains in Kansas City. You may have romanced near one of these or had wedding photos taken against a fountain back drop. Some people talk about "our song". Maybe you have "our fountain".

If your relationship is in trouble, it can sour your whole world. The KC fountains don't look so great then. Couple Counseling Kansas City works to restore beauty in your relationship. Some people don't hesitate to take their complicated auto to the dealer for service, let alone repairs. But they balk at taking their realtionship in for a tune-up. Modern day relationships are not less complicated than modern day cars. And I can guarantee you this: if your marriage or relationship goes on the blink, it's ultimately going to affect much more of your quality of life than if your car isn't running right.
