Therapy for Couples
Helping Couples Get to a Better Place in Their Lives.
Most people who start couples therapy feel stuck repeating the same painful patterns. Perhaps you can relate? Maybe you feel like you want to escape your life, or you know you’d be happier if you made changes, but it feels safer and more comfortable to stay the same.
Do You Feel Worried, Irritated, or Hopeless in Your Relationship?
- You fight all the time with your partner.
- You feel lonely, even when you are with others.
- You lost the joyful feelings that you used to have in your relationship.
- You've noticed that the spark in your relationship is gone.
- You feel like you are wandering through life, feeling like something is missing or your balance is "off."
Relationship-care is not indulgent or selfish. In fact, it is especially important to take care of your relationship as that influences your ability to care for yourself and for others.

- Feel more free and safe in your marriage.
- Have the intimacy you want with your partner.
- Shift into a more positive and hopeful outlook on life.
- Get to the root problems and solve those instead of using band-aids.

How Therapy for Couples Works
Couples Therapy is not always covered by insurance. We can discuss the length of sessions (53 or 90 minute) and payment options prior to your first appointment. During your session, your therapist will help you work through your concerns and guide you towards solutions.
Here’s how it will work step-by-step:
1. First, your therapist will provide a safe, accepting space so that you will feel comfortable sharing your struggles with them.
2. Through hearing your story, your therapist will start to get a picture of what your challenges are.
3. Next your therapist will start by helping you with immediate concerns like managing difficult emotions and challenging life situations.
4. You will also work together to discover what your goals are in therapy and in life.
5. Keeping your unique goals in mind, you’ll figure out what’s needed to help you reach them.
6. Over the course of your sessions, you will start making progress towards the life you desire.
Research shows that Couples Therapy can positively change your thinking, beliefs, emotions, and behaviors. It can help you let go of what’s holding you back in order to move forward in your relationship.
