Couples Counseling

Your relationship is one of your most valuable parts of your life and deserves to be functioning at its best.  We know that when your primary relationship isn’t functioning well, it can feel like your whole world is falling apart.

Unfortunately, you need more than just love to make a relationship work and that’s where we can be helpful. We start from where you are and together as a team, build skills and work to understand dysfunctional patterns that are keeping you stuck. 

When couples first come in, we will ask why they have decided to come at this point in time and what is driving the challenges that they face. We want to hear from both people and we see both people as equally necessary to make  changes to get you where you want to go.

Therapy can be painful when partners bring up hurts and problems but we want you to trust the process and know that getting to the good is going through the difficult.  It is possible to repair relationships and move to a more vibrant relationship by doing the work to get there.

We help couples deal with the following:

 

Affairs, infidelity, and betrayal
Addiction
Transitions in the lifespan
Communication barriers
Parenting
Partner imbalances
Roommate issues
Family of origin issues, extended family concerns
Relationship trauma, and historical trauma impacting the relationship
Understanding and building emotional connection
LGBTQ relationships
Infertility

Because the couple is the client, this isn’t covered by medical insurance and is an out of pocket cost.  However, investing in your relationship is one of the most important financial decisions you might ever make in your lifetime.  

Please reach out if you would like to schedule an appointment or a consultation to see if we might be the right fit for you.

We also offer relationship classes focusing on the reoccurring themes we see in therapy to help build skills in a much more relaxed setting.  We are sure you will find a class that fits your needs and if you don’t, let us know what you’re looking for.
