Relate.

Titles are so difficult to come up with for a brand new blog.  I think "Relate." does a pretty great job of summing up what I write about here, though.  I am interested in how we relate to one another.  My primary focus is obviously on families and couples, but the majority of these concepts apply to all sorts of relationships as well.  Not surprisingly, skills and characteristics that lead to marital satisfaction and overall family health have also been proven to help overall life satisfaction and personal relationships.

Some of the concepts I talk about may be more focused specifically on skills and techniques to use in clinical sessions, but please bear with me.  My goal for this blog is to have a great resource I can look back on when I need a refresher on something for one of my clients when I'm out of school.  Hopefully, if you're reading this, though, I can simultaneously provide you with some food for thought, and maybe even spark some conversations with you and your family members.  Enjoy!
