"Joe and I saw Nancy during three different periods. Each time she helped us enormously. Her method helps avoid any kind of “siding with” one member of the couple, which had been a problem for us with two previous therapists. But what have been most valuable are the lasting skills she taught us. We have returned to them whenever we have been facing difficulties. This past summer we were alone without our children for the first time in 22 years. It was a wonderful time and a difficult time. We used the structured talking she taught us to work through old conflicts, and released ourselves into a powerful intimacy. Joe said it felt like falling in love again. We have found ways to keep that connection and communication alive even when we cannot take the time everyday for sustained conversation. And we know we will return over and over again to the structured talk, for “good” topics as well as ones we know will be difficult." —Jenny and Joe

At Blooming Relationships, we offer therapy for couples, families and individuals based upon the Imago Relationship Therapy model (IRT). IRT proposes that there is an unconscious image (we call it Imago) guiding us in our selection of a mate and our conduct of our relationships. The difficulties we experience arise from our lack of awareness about what we're doing in our relationships, not from our choice of partners.

Nancy gently creates a safe environment for you to look honestly at yourself and to learn how to take the next steps, thus helping to deepen the intimacy and connection between you and your partner, as well as between family members. Nancy’s intensive seminars are creative, fun, hope-filled and transforming.

Nancy now offers telephone counseling for individuals.
