About Relationship Resources
HELPING RELATIONSHIPS THRIVE THRU THE SCIENCE OF COMMUNICATION
Many therapists do couples counseling, but very few are trained in it and even fewer exclusively see couples in their practice. Throughout three decades Relationship Resources has provided research driven, specialized care for couples.
The counseling methods used by Dr. Rein are based on training with Dr. John Gottman, the top marriage counselor and researcher in the country. Dr. Rein has shared these methods with thousands of couples and taught them to many other therapists.

The Model for Understanding Relationships
The Relationship Pyramid is a model for understanding relationships. The foundation of the pyramid and of any relationship is about needs.
The needs in a relationship are emotional intimacy and self-esteem. Couples need to feel emotionally close to their partners and to feel good about themselves in their relationships. From those needs stem patterns, perceptions, affect, and ultimately the language used towards your spouse or partner.
Dr. Rein utilizes the pyramid and focuses on positives and the future. He believes that if couples communicate with each other by applying the skills taught throughout their counseling sessions, they have the potential to not only survive but to thrive as a couple.
