“We learned so much about what was causing our conflict and grew closer. Dr. Hacker taught us how to communicate effectively and find real intimacy.” (former client, age 52)marriage & couples counseling
Many couples can benefit greatly from improving communication style so that both people feel they have been seen and heard, leading to increased trust and warmth after feeling disconnected.
Safe, honoring, and loving communication is a key building block in stable and happy partnerships. I am here to help facilitate the shifting of patterns that feel stuck, or communication that has come to a painful impasse, so that there is renewed movement and enhanced capacity for deepening your intimate connection to one another.

Emotion Focused Therapy for Couples - helps find the source of conflict or miscommunication underlying emotional and communication difficulties, and teaches couples to relate to one another effectively beyond the therapy office, taking with them effective relationship skills.
