Amy Marshall RN MN is the founder of The Relationship Resource Ltd.

I AM: a wife, mother, daughter, sister, granddaughter, nurse, therapist, colleague, and friend.

I BELIEVE: that our relationships matter most; knowledge is power; many couples do not inherently know how to be happily married despite societal expectations to the contrary; relationship skills can be learned; the quality of marital relationships can be enhanced with research-based skills.

I HOPE: that services offered by The Relationship Resource will result in renewed, intimate, and committed relationships of the highest quality.
