Dialogue Therapy disrupts our tendencies to dehumanize and create enemies with those closest to us, even during painful differences, when our trust is betrayed, or when our ideals of love are dashed. Dialogue Therapy teaches deeper communication, listening & conflict resolution skills that are not dependent upon the therapist, and helps us better understand ourselves while bringing us closer in the relationships that matter most (our romantic partners, adult children, adult siblings, or parents).

What Is Dialogue Therapy?
Couples therapy is notorious for failing because the members of the couple depend too much on the therapist. The deal with their conflicts only in the presence of the therapist. Dialogue Therapy, even from the first session, requires the couple to speak to each other and develop skills that do not depend on the therapist.
Pricing/Insurance
Dialogue Therapy is an intensive 13 session program. Each session is 50 minutes and $250 each. Please see link below for details about each session.
