Looking for a proven expert in Boston who focuses exclusively on saving relationships?
Speak with Dr. Gloria Spitalny, Ed.D at 617-266-0422. Dr. Gloria is a leading marriage coach and licensed counselor conveniently located in Back Bay Boston.

A board certified, clinical psychologist, Dr. Gloria has helped married and committed couples save relationships for over two decades.

She looks forward to helping your Boston marriage thrive.

Mission/vision
My goal is to coach married couples to help save relationships. I am passionate and driven to help you make important and lasting changes in how your approach your partner in Boston. I am committed to meeting your needs, solving your relationship issues and increasing your happiness. I challenge you to become my next couples counseling success story!

Marriage Coaching Boston
The problems that marriages experience in your relationships are in fact common. And all too often, married couples prematurely end their relationships without understanding that cycles repeat themselves. Without realizing that in a future relationship, the individuals are likely to be in the same exact predicament as today. So making a long-term marriage successful is hard work, but you can save yourself more pain and stress in the future by confronting your issues, patterns and approaches now. I am here to coach you through this process. The work will be challenging but the results will help you enhance your relationships forever. Our therapy will begin with your objectives and end when we have achieved them.

Approach
My therapy presents a model on how to develop a successful relationship. My therapy is focused; interactive, and structured to solve problems. I integrate cognitive (thoughts driving behavior) affective (emotions driving behavior) and behavioral (action driving behavior) approaches. Together, we will obtain success by using my proprietary Love Cycle system. This system is based on working with hundreds of clients helping them with their life struggles. I can help you with:

Communication problems
Unfulfilled emotional needs
Angry outbursts or sullen withdrawal
Conflicts involving affairs
Problems involving time or money
Sexual problems
Parenting or family problems

Success factors
The most critical factors for successful counseling and psychotherapy are for the therapist to be able to accurately understand your feelings and concerns, have an accepting nonjudgmental attitude, and to be authentic and real. The development of a positive, trusting relationship with the therapist is also critical. Other essential factors required are that each person is motivated to change.
