Relationships – Navigator Counseling

At Navigator, we recognize that human relationships are at the core of some of the most wonderful and the most troubling of life experiences. Building healthy relationships, healing broken ones, and reconciling to the loss of a relationship and all that entails are important elements of the work we do at Navigator.

Relationships grow out of interactions in all arenas of life. They can include partner, marital, or couple relationships, occupational/professional relationships, parent-child relationships, sibling relationships, family relationships, supervisor-worker relationships, and others. Because relationships involve people who come from different backgrounds, life perspectives, and values; they are complex and can be the source of great satisfaction or great pain.

At Navigator Counseling, we are dedicated to fostering healthy relationships and working to heal broken ones. When a relationship is irretrievably changed or broken, we focus of reconciliation to loss and focus on new growth and hope for the future. To this end, we address many relationship related issues.
