In 2017, Amy completed her final exams and is now officially a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist.   Congrats, Amy!

Amy has decided to part ways with Kainos this spring and start her own business.  Please join us in wishing her the best!

Tim and Amy spent four days in November (2016) at the externship training for Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy.  Here are some takeaways that they are now incorporating into their sessions with couples.

Tim – Couples cannot express their deepest, most painful emotions and needs until safety is completely and consistently established.  We need to allow couples to be in the stage of therapy they are in without trying to push them forward too quickly.

Amy – What one is displaying outwardly to their spouse is often a cover for a much deeper, more vulnerable emotion.  Therapy allows us to connect down into those emotions and create enactments for expression of these deeper emotions and needs.

Tim – There is nothing more impactful than relentless, empathetic curiosity.
