Anne has been a lifeline in our marriage. It seems my wife and I have a difficult time communicating and getting along. Anne steps in, not as a referee, but as an advocate for each individual with the goal of helping us see our marriage be successful. She is well informed of communication skills and has a talent for sifting through emotions so that sensitivities and curiosities about each other are aroused. My wife and I, still very much in the process, are learning to be less combative and more trusting of one another that we both want things to work. Anne is not afraid to put the hard questions out there with the expectation that we will each take responsibility for the things we say and do!
