The rules have changed!

In a world that is full of stress and chaos, the last thing someone wants to do is go home to more problems. Unfortunately, this is exactly the case, most people feel like their relationship is partly to blame – in some cases, entirely to blame – for the stress they are experiencing in life.

For those not in a relationship, dating  can feel like a maze of unpredictable terrain, with no map or path to guide you successfully to the other end. What’s right or what’s wrong in the relationship game…?

40 or 50 years ago the rules were much more straightforward and simple –who asked who out, who paid on a date, who made the first move –now things seem a lot more unclear.

Modern men and women don’t want to be pigeon holed into one type of role. Instead, both genders possess personal ambitions and aspirations for the future, seeking successful careers and personal fulfillment, freedom and satisfaction from life.

Sounds great, right?

But… since each person has their own specific needs, finding the right partner and maintaining a supportive and encouraging relationship where we can strive towards our personal goals, feel connected to each other, and still have tons of fun, can seem like a daunting, if not impossible, task. How do you merge to very independent and ambitious lives without limiting or compromising the dreams of either party?

This is the challenge of our times, but… it’s not all doom and gloom.

What most people don’t realize is that every person can easily sustain their relationship themselves in a happy and successful manner if they have a better understanding of the dynamics at play and know how to manage themselves better to get the outcomes they want. Unfortunately, because most people don’t have the proper guidance, they tend to keep repeating the same patterns or problems again and again. My role is to help individuals or couples gain an understanding of themselves and their relational dynamics more clearly and I teach them the skills required to manage their particular issues in a more constructive manner.
