I provide therapy to individuals, couples and groups and especially enjoy working with children and adolescents.

As a solution-focused therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will discover and modify long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life. If you're looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you're just ready to move forward in a new direction in your life, I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals!

Life is often filled with challenges which affect each of us in different ways. I believe that how we approach and overcome those challenges, help to shape us and allow us to experience life to the fullest. I began my Marriage and Family Psychotherapy practice here in Glendora out of a desire to use my life experience, education, and passion to help serve the health needs of our community and the surrounding cities. Through my experience in a variety of settings, I have discovered that building a supportive relationship through therapy creates a safe place to explore life struggles, understand difficult issues, learn new skills, enrich relationships, and work through situations in order to lead a more authentic life. Creating a safe and supportive environment, where you can feel comfortable, is essential to my practice. In that setting, we can collaborate on how best to understand your situation, identify your goals, and find solutions. I bring a varied theoretical approach, centered on forms of therapy including psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral, brief/solution focused, and ensuring sensitivity to cultural diversity. My services include counseling individuals, families, couples and groups. • Eating Disorder Recovery and Body Image • Relationships • Anxiety • Depression • Premarital • Grief & Loss/ • Parenting • War Veterans and Family • Counseling for Men • Endometriosis, Interstitial Cystitis, Infertility • Older Adults • Group therapy: Ongoing Eating Disorder Recovery and Body Image Group

Do you remember what your relationship used to feel like? Time goes by, things happen and you and your partner begin to feel the distance and dissatisfaction. You and/or your partner may be wondering: How can I have recreated my parent's relationship? Why are we having the same old arguments about money, kids, sex, in-laws etc.? Why do we communicate like we are from two different planets? How can I be attracting the same type of unhealthy relationship again? Why do I feel judged, misunderstood, alone, and unloved? How can I feel so angry, sad or anxious all the time? Why does he/she always need to be right? Why can't he/she commit? Should I stay or leave? Let us help you to recreate the loving relationship you once had You may be wondering why the relationship you are in feels so familiar? Well it is! In some mystical way we are drawn to our relationships in an unconscious attempt to repair the emotional wounds of childhood. We are unintentionally recreating home. With greater conscious awareness you can begin to create a new vision for your relationship. You will experience how the relationship becomes an opportunity to be in service to your own growth and healing. Your relationship will never be like the first date or first year but you may come to experience a deeper more profound mature love that is only possible with years together. I acknowledge your courage for taking the first step to get the support you need in order to create a deeper, more intimate and meaningful relationship and experience more joy and enthusiasm in your life.

My practice is focused on helping people with relationship issues. I work with adults, mostly doing couples work. I strive to help clients repair and improve their relationships. If you are motivated to work on enhancing your relationship(s), please call me to determine if I might be able to help you.

Individual therapy for all ages, family, and couples therapy - Biblical Counseling for any circumstance you are going through. Mary specializes in couples counseling, especially dealing with infidelity. Mary is also trained in Level 1 of EMDR, which is an effective means of helping those who have experienced some type of stressful event. Family Therapy works well with teenagers who are experiencing difficulties at home; it allows for communication between the generations. Even if you are not looking for Biblical counseling, you will find Mary is able to share God's love no matter what circumstance you are going through. Mary does not discriminate - any age, gender, religious affiliation, or handicap is welcome to receive services.

We need to feel understood, safe, and supported to create life-long change, and in my practice I work to establish a respectful and warm relationship where this growth and development can occur. I believe each person is capable of tremendous change and view giving the gift of therapy as an honor. I find by exploring both the past and the present, clients are better able to recognize life patterns which may be affecting their relationships, career, and overall mental health. However, I also believe each person is unique and do not utilize a "one-size-fits-all" approach. Rather, I work with clients in a collaborative manner, and together we establish the direction and pace of our work. I work with individuals and couples from a variety of cultural, ethnic, and spiritual backgrounds, sexual orientations, and gender identities. Overall, I think you will find my approach open, flexible, affirming, and engaging. Clients usually begin sessions with a variety of concerns such as depression, anxiety, self-esteem concerns, or problems with romantic and personal relationships. I also work with clients on issues of trauma and past abuse, body image and eating disorders, LGBTQI issues, and women's issues.

In addition to helping clients overcome depression, anxiety, stress, and trauma, my subspecialties include supporting women and couples after the loss of their pregnancy or newborn to help them grieve, heal and find new meaning in their lives while treasuring and honoring their babies. Additionally, I enjoy working with women during pregnancy and following the birth of their child to help create a motherhood mindset to thrive in their new role and minimize risk factors for developing post partum mood disorders. I have supported men and women through their struggles for over 20 years so they could live their lives more fully and without the burden of past traumas constantly holding them back. My clients report that with treatment they feel more supported and validated, have confidence in using powerful tools to help them through the worst of times and ultimately learn to move forward in their lives. Please don’t hesitate to call so we can discuss how I can best serve you. My clientele is diverse in culture, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, and family makeup.

Since 1995, I have been privileged to assist individuals, couples and families to confront their challenges, limitations and entanglements in order to find greater health, joy and fulfillment. I know that you already have all that is needed for your own healing and manifestation and it is my goal to gently and respectfully facilitate the connection to and integration of your innate gifts. The clients drawn to Integrative Therapy are in various stages of transformation and are seeking additional tools to support their process. Many clients are experiencing a spiritual crisis and have lost touch with and faith in their higher guidance. Others may be “stuck” in old patterns that no longer serve them. Our work together provides a safe space to explore and release entanglements, limitations and blockages in order to experience their inner truth. Some clients may be physically, mentally and/or emotionally challenged by illness or injury. In our work we decode the messages inherent in their symptomology to broaden the scope of their healthcare choices. Our work together will be of limited duration because you will gain the necessary tools to release your blockages, balance and integrate your energies and tap into your soul’s guidance.

I am in private practice specializing in the treatment of anxiety disorders, depression and relationship difficulties. I see individuals, couples, and families. My approach to counseling and psychotherapy is highly integrative, using strategies from many different models of treatment in a manner that best fits the needs and the goals of the person.

Karen Tyndall as a Licensed Professional Counselor focuses her clinical practice on Cognitive, Behavioral, Solution-focus Therapy, Anger Management, Grief Counseling and Marriage Counseling. Her therapeutic goal is helping children, teens and adults overcome depression, childhood trauma, grief issues, self-sabotage, damaged relationships and all other personal issues that block one's happiness, joy and success in life. With her "Re-directional Therapy" she helps clients build better relationships and move beyond past and present problems. Clients gain confidence, a happier lifestyleand better relationships. Clients are able to "let go" of old behaviors and beliefs that keep them "stuck" in repeating negative life patterns over and over. With new awareness and direction, individuals discover their true purpose, potential and strength to help build more harmonious relationships and experience more fullness in all their personal areas of life. "Most individuals just need the "how-to" and "direction" in therapy and personal coaching to become their best at home, personal life and work environments. I make certain that our clients are provided with these opportunities. With marriage counseling, grief counseling, anger management, and using our complete professional counseling and coaching techniques, our clients soon discover how to create more success in their life style."

At Keene Murray Therapy, our approach to helping people is: Creative. Our work is shaped both by our immersion in creative arts and by our extensive background in a variety of psychological approaches. Respectful. We recognize that our clients are the only ones who can truly tell their story. Our function is to help clients identify and achieve their goals. Non-pathologizing. We believe that most problems are simply former solutions that no longer work. We help clients discover more adaptive means to meet life's challenges. Collaborative. We value the interpersonal quality of a therapeutic relationship that acknowledges the effects and influences that both client and therapist contribute. Depth-oriented. Experience has shown us that significant change has its roots in the multi-layered interconnectedness of a person's inner life. We accompany clients as they explore and learn to navigate this strange and exciting territory. Groups I work with include: Elders facing adjustment or end-of-life issues, couples (including gays/lesbians) with relationship difficulties, families experiencing inter-generational problems, victims of trauma (e.g., car accidents, violent attacks, natural disasters), children and teens needing psychological assessment of intellectual and/or emotional functioning. We offer phone and video-conference therapy sessions. Home/site visits are available in our neighborhood. We operate on a fee-for-service basis, accepting payments by cash or check. We provide receipts for insurance reimbursement purposes. Check with your insurance company about their out-of-network policy.

Although often difficult periods of change can give us opportunities to bring our lives more in alignment with what has true value and meaning for ourselves. I work with people during important transitions in their lives, for instance either starting or leaving a significant job or relationship. Communication, trust, intimacy and/ or sexual issues win your relationship? I am very comfortable working with traditional, open/ poly and queer relationships. I can assist you and your partner(s) to develop better communication and understanding around sensitive topics such as betrayal, intimacy and trust. I use an approach called EFT (Emotionally Focused Therapy) developed by Dr Sue Johnson. Clinical research shows that 90% of couples report significant improvement within 12-20 sessions of EFT. As former Director of the Eating Disorders program at Community Institute of San Rafael, Marin, I work with people who obsess that if they only had the perfect weight their lives would work out. So many of us through over dieting and body hatred have lost our connection to ourselves. The body instead of being home for our psyche/ spirit becomes the battleground. I work with clients to end their battle with food and their bodies. Look at my video describing the popular teleclass series for how to empower yourself during the holidays especially when dealing with stressors around food and family: "Empower Don't Devour!' Do you feel emotionally stuck in the past? You might be suffering from trauma. I help my clients move through past traumatic experiences using EMDR (eye movement desensitization reprocessing) This well researched method has fast and effective results in working with people suffering from trauma. I also help my clients release the cellular and muscular memory of the trauma (which is where trauma is often stored) using somatic psychotherapy. This is an approach that taps into body awareness and mindfulness, which does not involve touch. Finally I have found Depth Hypnosis to be a highly effective tool for helping my clients get out of stuck places and create the change they want.

Do you struggle with anxiety, fears and phobias or flashbacks and panic attacks. These symptoms of anxiety also cause depression. Have you tried to get rid of these symptoms using talk therapies alone? Have you been disappointed with those results? EMDR is an evidenced based therapy which lessens feelings of shame, fear, and other feelings that hold self judgment and self limiting beliefs . Beliefs are important because they drive our livesIf (especially the beliefs that are unconscious). EMDR is a process that can easily change your perspective and disempower these limiting beliefs. I use EMDR and EFT (emotional freedom techniques) for faster relief of symptoms of sadness, shame, and fears. These are the 2 therapy techniques that bring the fastest relief to clients in emotional pain.

I have been in the field of mental health since 1991. In my practice, I treat adults for a broad range of issues including anxiety, depression, relationship problems, grief & loss (with a particular specialty in treating loss to suicide), trauma/PTSD, gay & lesbian issues, sexual abuse and stress. I am certified in EMDR.

I counsel individuals, couples, families, adolescents, and adults. Dr. Chapline is highly skilled at the use of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, EMDR (Eye-Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Clinical Hypnotherapy, Ego State therapy and psycho-education. She will use her vast repertoire of additional modalities based upon a particular client's need. I enjoy my work! I love the field of psychology because it is so vast. I care about helping people move toward psychological wellness and motivating and inspiring them to reach goals. I consider therapy to be a valuable component of the walk of one's inner journey toward self completion. Psycho-education permits understanding of the origin of problematic symptoms, and how an individual became well. This type of knowledge creates skills that are transferable across life events and time.

If you'd like your days to hold more joy and peacefulness, psychotherapy can help. In therapy you can explore options, gain new skills, and address specific areas of concern. • Do your unique abilities leave you feeling misunderstood, or as if you don’t fit in? • Is your relationship less satisfying than you’d like it to be? Do you struggle to find meaningful communication and intimacy in a relationship? • Have you experienced trauma (an acute incident or a chronic pattern) that leaves you feeling frightened, frozen, or numb at certain times? Or perhaps you just feel depressed or unhappy more than you’d like, and can’t figure out why? • Are you concerned about your child or family? Therapy can help with these situations, along with many others such as depression, anxiety, drug/alcohol/sex use; as well as prejudice and challenges that LGBT individuals may encounter. You deserve to have a happy and fulfilled life, and therapy may be a tool to help you in creating that. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) working in Noe Valley, in San Francisco, CA. If you’d like help addressing the things that trouble you; or want to feel happier, calmer, and more excited about your life, please call or email me. In a free short consultation you can get a sense of what it might be like for us to work together. I hope to hear from you.

NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS CURRENTLY. Caring empathy.Learn to Find Happiness in all the right places. Many of us need support to integrate our emotional, intellectual, & spiritual awareness with life dreams, sexual relationships, & day-to-day commitments. I help my clients recognize and work through repressed or misdirected anger & other destructive patterns which inhibit self growth, self respect, intimacy, spirituality, or commitment in relationships. I help both individuals and couples, including treating anxiety, menopause, post traumatic stress, dissociation and life changes. We may work intensively (at least two hours a week) for short, contracted periods of time such as 2 or 3 months. During that period of meeting a minimum of two days a week, the therapy has the opportunity to build in intensity and increase its effectiveness. After that much intense, introspective work, we take a break for integration of the work on your own. First we negotiate the time period of the break, and if needed, a re-starting time. This empowering time period gives my clients a personal space to assimilate the work and let any positive changes be felt and integrated. I find that for many people this is the fastest way through change and/or crisis. If needed, I am always available by phone or email during the hiatus in therapy. I use a variety of techniques including EMDR, shamanic journey, hypnosis and imagery, talk, homework --whatever works at the time. Many of these techniques, useful life tools, can be incorporated by my clients into their everyday lives. I invite you to consider this form of intensive, condensed therapy as a useful way of dealing with our present life stresses and crises, although I am also available for once a week sessions as well.

For more than 30 years I've been helping people move past anxiety, fear and worry. If you're losing sleep and waking up worried I can help-often in the first session. I also have much experience helping folks to repair and strengthen relationships of all shapes and sizes....I can assist traditional marriages and I also have experience and comfort with alternative kinds! As a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist I have special training to help people who struggle with all kinds of sexually compulsive behaviors. AND I can assist their partners, spouses, and family members as well! CSE stands for certified sexual educator, and CCS for certified clinical sexologist, which means I can help with any kind of sexual problem, hang up, or difficulty. Many people come to me with desire issues, ie they want more or less sex than their partner. Others struggle with "addiction" to internet porn or risky sex like affairs. Most importantly, I do lots of work by PHONE, which means you don't need to come into my Los Osos office. This offers a private and convenient alternative for those who aren't able to attend "in person."

Sometimes we feel unhappy due to chronic stress, family conflict or relationship struggles, loss of a loved one, and/or feeling without a purpose in life. These issues are extremely common; roughly 25% of all adults in the United States experience depression each year. Unfortunately, only 1/3 of adults in emotional distress actually seek professional help, which is surprising considering research has proven repeatedly that psychotherapy will reduce most symptoms as well as improve functioning Over the years, I have helped hundreds of adults and adolescents improve their functioning and happiness by: * Finding new meaning in life and building a spirituality * Teaching communication skills for improving relationships * Increasing control over thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, * Providing emotional support during difficult transitions * Overcoming addiction and preventing relapse.

I offer Mindfulness-based Online Therapy via personal Skype sessions for the treatment of anxiety, depression, emotional stress, addictions and other forms of emotional suffering. Online Mindfulness Therapy is particularly effective for anxiety disorders, including Generalized Anxiety Disorder, social anxiety, panic attacks, agoraphobia and depression. Mindfulness Therapy is also very effective for managing traumatic experiences including emotional trauma and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). This online therapy service allows you to talk to a therapist online in real-time, but from the comfort of your own home or office and at a time that is convenient for you. Many of my clients live abroad or in rural areas where it may be difficult to find a psychotherapist to work with. All you need is Skype and PayPal and a quiet place for your online therapy sessions. Mindfulness Therapy is very focused on changing the underlying process that produces anxiety, depression and stress. Clients learn how to stop negative habitual reactive thinking, which is the first phase of Mindfulness Therapy. The second phase involves resolving the underlying emotions through the transformational effects of mindfulness. Most people see dramatic improvement within 3-4 sessions of online mindfulness therapy. In general. this approach is far more cost-effective and produces results in far shorter time than older styles of "talking therapy" where the client simply talks about their emotions. this is obviously an important part of psychotherapy and counseling, but not enough to transform the underlying reactive processes that produce the anxiety, depression or addiction. In order to produce lasting change you must learn how to form a non-reactive relationship with your emotions or traumatic memories based on mindfulness. Mindfulness is defined as the combination of intentional conscious awareness with compassion. This latter quality is immensely important for healing emotional suffering and that is why we emphasize making friends with your emotional pain. This is an art and mindfulness therapy teaches you exactly how to do this. If you would like to schedule an online therapy session and you would like to talk to a therapist online via Skype you are very welcome to contact me to discuss if this is a good approach for you. Therapy sessions are usually 60-90 mins. Talk to a therapist online via Skype for effective help with anxiety and depression.

Do you want to stop repeating the patterns of unproductive fights that lead to feelings of frustration and loneliness?

Individual, Couples and Family Counseling, sub specialty working with Emergency Services Personnel and their families including: Law Enforcement, Corrections, Firefighters, Emergency Room staff, Ambulance Attendants. Problems such as Depression, Trauma, Anxiety, Stress, Relationship Difficulties, Self Esteem Issues addressed in a safe atmosphere of confidentiality and professionalism. Many times a client is interested in how the Treatment Process works. Just how does Counseling work? In my view, the most important ingredient affecting a positive outcome is the motivation of the client to feel better and/or do better. The role of the provider is to assist the client in accessing inner strengths and solutions they might not be aware of. This involves some problem solving discussions to first identify the source of the difficulty. Also important is the developing of understanding as to what may contribute to or reduce the negative impact of the problem or problems troubling the individual, couple or family. Coming from a Humanistic background I believe most people possess the real solutions to their problems although sometimes they are unable to access those solutions without assistance. Many times my role is that of a consultant to the client or clients in discovering those solutions and finding ways to reduce the trouble they are experiencing.

One of the most difficult decisions you or someone you know may have to make is finding a good, effective therapist. When one is struggling emotionally and is in dire need of help, the last thing you want is to have to struggle through the process of finding a good therapist. But, unless you know someone who knows a good therapist, you are usually left with having to pick a name at random from the telephone directory or from your insurance provider handbook. I would like to take this opportunity to introduce you to my private therapy practice. I am a licensed clinical social worker and registered nurse who sees adolescents and adults in individual, couples, family, and group therapy. I also run psychoeducational groups. I have been working as a therapist since 1999 in Philadelphia, PA and relocated to Marianna, FL in August 2006. My experience includes work with depression, bipolar disorder, suicide, self-mutilation, anxiety disorders, psychotic disorders, adjustment disorders, personality disorders, drug and alcohol, family issues, parenting issues, relationship issues, family issues, childhood issues, trauma issues, abuse issues, loss/grief/bereavement issues, women’s issues, self-esteem issues, self-image issues, codependency and dependency issues, anger management, stress management, time management, life skills, work issues, and case management among other issues. I also have experience working with dual diagnosis clients (those with mental health and addiction issues). My focus in working with clients is to help clients gain and maintain control of themselves and their lives despite present and past obstacles, stresses, and trauma. I work with some insurance and also see clients without insurance on a sliding scale fee. There are day, evening, and weekend hours available. I can usually schedule appointments within a couple of days to a week after the initial telephone call. I see clients in person as well as via telephone and online/internet modes. I accept most insurances and charge fees for those who do not have insurance. Reduced fees are available for clients based on income and situation.

My approach to psychotherapy is humanistic, psycho-dynamic and relational. I view healing of the whole person as part of an individual’s natural development and growth. This therapeutic process provides an introspective, empathetic focus, aimed at understanding, removing emotional blocks and moving toward ongoing growth. After assessing the individual's concerns, needs and goals, I make psychiatric referrals when necessary for prescriptive treatment and work closely with the psychiatrist, so that collaborative treatment planning and treatment options can be considered. I believe the relationship between the client and therapist is where the most significant healing occurs. Psychotherapy becomes a creative process, incorporating mindful attentiveness to one's self as well as the self of the other. The healing of mind, body and spirit merges into a solid foundation of the integrated self. Through the use of a variety of approaches such as psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral and attachment theory, I offer a warm, accepting environment for the disclosure of emotions, experiences and secrets that may be difficult to discuss or have been held inside. Throughout our work together, we will bring awareness and light to the areas of your life where you feel stuck. Therapy can be a place to unravel your life story in order to “make sense” of it. The weaving of past stories, events, feelings and traumas, with current emotions, patterns, stressors and events will enable you to integrate the past with the present.

I have been in private practice for over twenty years and have helped many people overcome issues affecting their lives. I work with all populations except children. If you are having problems in your life, whether it's loneliness, the desire for a relationship, relationship issues including infidelity, boredom or sexual issues, anxiety, depression, job unhappiness, creative blocks, feelings of emptiness or failure, grief, trauma, low self-esteem, childhood issues or struggling with alcoholism, I can help you heal and become all that you want to be and were meant to be. I am interactive, supportive, and join with my clients, helping them find solutions to their problems. I also coach people regarding life issues and job issues. If you are living outside of California, I can't be your therapist but I can coach you for all problems, except severe depression or severe mental illness, via telephone, email, or video conferencing. I see or hear sessions via doxy.me or phone I am available for phone sessions and email sessions until very late in the evening. I generally don't do sessions after one am.

Each of us is unique, complex and special. Together we can resolve the inner and outer conflicts that create pain and exhaustion. Our life often brings experiences not of our choosing. Sometimes we’re hurt by others. Sometimes we don’t fit easily into the world we live in. Sometimes what life brings feels too big to accept and manage. I can help you find peaceful and practical ways of doing the best you can with what is, of managing your self and situations with compassion and skill, of finding joy and nourishment in this life at this time. For over 25 years I have been practicing my craft with children, adolescents, middle adults, elders, couples and families. They have come to me with developmental, situational and relational issues. Some had experienced tragedies; some felt overwhelmed by their children or partner. Some were deeply grieving, some filled with anger. Some had illnesses or disabilities they wish they didn’t. Each of them added to my understanding of what it is to be human. Most of us long for happiness, self acceptance, caring relationships and success in our endeavors. Together, drawing from my extensive training and experience and your inner and outer resources, we can create meaningful, lasting and joyful change.

As a certified cognitive therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns and negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life. Cognitive Therapy was created by Aaron Beck, MD at the University of Pennsylvania , but now practiced as the primary form of therapy all over the world. "Cognitive" literally means knowing or thinking, so CT emphasizes directly changing how we think. By changing how we think, we can change our emotional and behavioral reactions. CT emphasizes interventions such as, evidence based thinking, hypothesis testing our thoughts, activity scheduling and prediction. It is the most scientifically proven therapy and the "Gold Standard" treatment for depression and anxiety disorders; scientifically proven controlled research trials have shown its effectiveness is often comparable to medication therapy. CT has also gone on to accumulate hundreds of proven effective results for anxiety disorders, personality disorders, eating disorders, phobias, marital discord, ADHD, and aspergers syndrome, etc. Joseph is credentialed by the Academy of Cognitive Therapy. The only national credentialing organization standardizing Cognitive Therapy. Since CT has become the most proven and recommended type of therapy, many psychotherapists now claim to know how to do CT, unfortunately very few are actually credentialed or trained to do so.

If you are interested in pre-marital, marriage, or couples counseling, I utilize the Gottman Method of Couples Therapy, which is based on the research by Dr. John Gottman that began in the 1970's and continues to this day.

This method is designed to help teach specific tools to deepen friendship and intimacy in your relationship. To help you productively manage conflicts, you will be given methods to manage problems and gridlocked (or perpetual) issues.

When you feel like this isn’t the person you married; when you worry that the gap in between you is widening every day; when it feels like the rug has been pulled out from under you after discovering the affair... it can feel like you are in over your head, and you may ask “Is it too late to save my marriage?” My special focus is in couples therapy (marriage counseling), helping couples in crisis to break out of the vicious cycle of hurting and being hurt. I also specialize in helping multi-cultural couples deal with cultural and religious differences that often pose major stumbling blocks to their relationship.
