Welcome To Barbara Massey LMFT - Counseling

Do You Want to Change/Enrich Your Relationship?

Feeling hurt or disconnected in your relationship/marriage? Has the trust broken down through an affair? Emotional distance and lack of affection are hurtful. It can be hard to be "objective" and not over react. Even the most successful, professional couple or individual can need more skills or self-knowledge to talk about issues.

You can learn how to communicate clearly, develop closeness again (or for the first time) or move on as a couples or individually. This comes through working on your own anxiety or depression that may be because of or before the relationship difficulty. Problems with trust, perhaps due to past trauma, can be worked with to increase relationship communication.

Marriage counseling or Couples counseling in may bring you more respect and love. Even if your spouse does not want change yet,working on your Relationship issues can stop the cycle, so your past hurts do not cloud your thinking. Any of the choices you make are yours without judgment---separating, divorcing or exploring a new relationship.

Learning new skills through actual practice/changing the communication process is key to making changes in relationships and dealing with the anxiety that comes up.  I can help you sort through your emotions and thoughts within a compassionate environment. Just as technology develops (think back iPhone 6) you may need an up-to-date, marriage counselor or couples counselor. Contact me by phone/text at 541-326-1696 or by email at bmasseyj@proton.me

"Don't try to fix it. I just need you to listen." Every person has heard these words. I can help you say it differently or be heard better to get through to each other. Idividuals tend to do the same thing in their head and not recognize their feelings, argue within yourself. Emotions and thoughts need to work together.
