Welcome to – Imagoworks – the online home of Houston and Bellaire, Tx., marriage counselor, Barbara Reichlin. Barbara, a Certified Advanced Imago Relationship Therapist, has had but one specialty for the past 26 years: helping couples and individuals identify and deal with the issues keeping them from having the close, harmonious and passionate relationship they desire.
“I don’t know how to get through to my partner any more. I try, but the door seems closed tight. Sometimes I feel rejected, other times dismissed and minimized. Seems like I always feel alone.”
“Our marriage is hurting from all the arguing – it’s exhausting. I wish we could find some peace and quiet.”
“We never argue – but I think it’s because we don’t know how to deal with our issues. Now we’re drifting further and further apart and constantly walking on eggshells – I’m ready to fix it but how do I bring up all these things we’ve never been able to talk about?”
“There’s been a betrayal in our relationship – now things are constantly breaking down into hours of tears, attacks, endless questions, defensiveness, you name it. We want to stay together but we can’t even talk about what happened – we need an impartial someone to help us communicate and heal!”
“Frankly, I don’t want to go to counseling – it’s not my thing, but I’ve run out of ideas on how to fix this. I’m starting to get scared, like we might not make it unless we find help.”
“We’re in crises – we need someone with a lot of experience, who knows what they’re doing – ASAP!
“I’ve heard that counselors sometimes side with one partner over the other … we need someone who’ll be able to see both our sides!”
