Profile
Are you wanting to take steps that lead to a more secure, loving relationship? Many couples seek couples counseling only when their relationship is in trouble. We now know, however, that couples can learn skills that can strengthen their relationship. Whether you are in a new relationship, an old and successful relationship, or a troubled relationship, couples counseling can enhance the quality of your life.

"Fast acting, long lasting" is how one couple described their couples' work with me. I can teach you tools and skills to strengthen you connection as partners. Couples can work with me on an ongoing basis or visit for a half-day or full day therapy intensive. With telehealth, I am frequently able to see couples who live outside my state.

In addition to being PACT Level 3 Trained, I am also trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). This treatment resolves trauma stemming from injury, abuse, and physical violence. Upsetting events from the past can create emotional scars, and our partner may unknowingly trigger reactions which are difficult for couples to manage. In our work together, you will have an opportunity to learn new skills which will shift your relationship into a safer, healing place.

As a Yoga Teacher, I often integrate mindfulness based approaches to assist partners in truly valuing and appreciating each others presence in the here and now.

If you are a counselor who works with couples, I offer individual consultation services and facilitate consultation groups for therapists who work with couples. Openings are ongoing. Please inquire for more information.

I live in Colorado and when I am not working, I like to hike, bike, ski and ride horses in the outdoors with my wonderful husband, daughter, and mini-Australian Shepherd.

Get a head start to creating your best relationship by viewing my website, www.bethobriencounseling.com. In the news section of my website, you will find articles I wrote that can give you valuable insights on how to address your couple concerns.
