Mel’s Message

We all want to feel loved, but sadly we struggle. Our relationships often begin with great promises of happiness and love, but the positive energy fades all too soon. Over time, you may have acclimated to boredom, mediocrity or conflict. Resigning yourself to this discontent can lead to depression, anxiety, resentment, and despair. You deserve better.

I believe that our relationship challenges are often due to our lack of education in this most precious undertaking. It’s a shame that the pillars of relationship weren’t part of our education, but why not learn them now?

You and your partner can learn the skills and strategies required to thrive. My work in couple’s counseling is focused on providing the clarity, insights and communication expertise for you to succeed in your partnering. I’ll help you learn and cultivate the 5 pillars of resilient relationships.

Mel challenged me to ‘reimagine’ my life and to take those unraveled threads and weave them into an emerging and exciting life! In short, to become both the dreamer and weaver of my life. His groundbreaking book, The Possibility Principle, informs much of my thought process and occupies a permanent position on the side of my bed. Thank you, Mel!”
