I Can Help You Improve Your Communications and Learn How To Argue Effectively. I Also Help Deal With Emotions Surrounding Betrayal and Loss of Connection.

Marriage Family Therapist

How Can I Help?

I take a positive relationship approach, based on the Gottman Method and enhanced from my years of experience working with couples in the East Valley. From the day you walk in to my office, we will be closing the door on the past. I help you focus on tips and techniques that will get you to stop beating each other up and start focusing on where you want to go.

As a licensed therapist, I can provide you and your partner numerous ways to bring about change that you would not normally know how to accomplish on your own. I provide a supportive environment for you to identify and communicate the issues, feelings, and behaviors that are bothering you, to facilitate understanding and positive change.

Please review some testimonials I have received from couples I have been able to help, and call or text me or fill out the form below to schedule a free consultation. I look forward to speaking with you.

Some Couples' Feedback

Note: I will not disclose the names of the couples I counsel.

Thank You Dr. Collins for all you have done for me and my wife!

When my wife set up the appointment to come see you, I did not want to come. We had been to counseling in the past and I always walked out feeling worse about myself and my marriage and very beat up.

Your “Positive Marriage Program” approach to therapy saved our marriage. I looked forward to coming to sessions. Not only has it saved our marriage, I feel that I know and understand more about myself and personally am a much happier person.

Thank You Again!

My wife and I were married for 15 years and had grown tired of having the same arguments over and over again and neither one of us was feeling very loved or appreciated. I was ready to move on and find some peace in my life.

I talked with Dr. Collins and within a few weeks we were working on some core issues that were causing the arguments and began to understand that each of us felt loved in a different way. We both have worked at understanding our needs and communicating them to each other which has given our marriage a whole new life.

Thank you, Dr. Collins.

Dr. Collins, I can’t thank you enough for saving my marriage! We were well on our way to walking the pathway to ending our 18-year marriage. I never thought after my infidelity my wife would ever forgive me. Your process of getting us to go deeper into suppressed emotions that was causing us to disconnect allowed us to express ourselves and reconnect on a whole different level. We are so blessed we found you!

Dr. Collins saved our relationship! We stopped texting when we were angry, and learned how to argue effectively. We stopped bringing up everything from our 6 years together that made us feel misunderstood and focused on bringing up one thing at a time to resolve.

When my husband and I went in to see Dr. Collins, I was done with our marriage and just wanted someone to confirm it. After the first 4 sessions, I started to look at myself and my marriage in a different way. Dr. Collins worked with some old wounds we both had that triggered strong reactions that caused us to shut down to one another. Once we addressed and looked at the real issues we were able to communicate for the first time in a long time.

Thank you, Dr. C., for sticking with us!

When we came to counseling with Dr. Collins, I was an emotional mess. My wife of 30 years told me she wanted a divorce. I thought I was going to the session to have help ending our marriage.

After the first session we walked out with tools and an action plan to give our marriage a chance before we divorced. After using the tools, we began to communicate and hear each other and reconnected emotionally. Our sessions with Dr. Collins saved our marriage and transformed our lives. Dr. Collins we owe so much to you. Thank You!

When Is The Right Timing For Couples Therapy?

A study quoted by Dartmouth College says that the average couple waits too long before seeking help for relationship problems, and therapists agree that more couples could be helped if they seek help earlier. Please give me a call today to discuss the issues you are facing.
