I am writing this based on past, and current experience today, 2014. We utilized Jerry's services for the first time in 2001 after three weeks of dating. We knew we had something wonderful right away and decided to invest in learning how to best communicate and work through our many issues from prior failed relationships. Jerry is more than an active listener. He taught methods, phrasing, practices, that got us through our challenges we would have never survived otherwise. We left each session, some not even speaking upon arrival, bonded, educated and confident. His methods are participatory, his observations, questions, suggestions were always spot on and made in a timely way. I experienced other therapists prior to Jerry and walked away with a random insight but mostly time wasted with little no progression, plan, or light at the end of the tunnel. Not the case with Jerry. Improvements you can expect immediately, helpfulness and insightful information guaranteed and if you appreciate an education based on facts, figures, percentages and from someone very well informed then you will appreciate this style of proactive therapy. Span to 2014 - we have enjoyed ten years of a wonderful marriage, one our friends and family contest they strive to achieve and what makes them believe it can be done. But due to extreme stress - cross country moves, caregiving, parental issues, a close death, job insecurity -while it seems obvious the cause we just couldnt work through this issues and couldnt see the forest through the trees. To say we were in crisis with our marriage overnight is an understatement it was very serious. We went from great to actually taking steps to separation in just six months. We decided before we quit we would approach Jerry once again to say we tried it all. Three thousand miles away we called in crisis. One hour later we were put back together, holding hands and back in unison and with a plan. We continue our process and the results everything they were over ten years ago. I highly recommend Jerry - my wonderful life began when I met my husband but a huge part of our success with our marriage, our relationships with our children are the way they are because of what we learned, and practiced from Jerry. No problem is insurmountable and you are not alone. read more
