Our goal is to help you both find the value in your relationship, better understand one another’s perspectives, and develop mutual respect for what each individual brings to the table.

FAQ

It’s never too late to consider couples therapy. Often people come to counseling later than they should with a bag full of unresolved issues. Leaving relationship problems unattended can only make things worse, creating communication breakdown, stress, anger, hurt, and loneliness. Don’t wait for your relationship to get worse and deteriorate more. Couples therapy can help you change course away from crisis and get back on track onto a positive path. Couples come to therapy not just in crisis. The goal is often to improve the foundation of the relationship, effectively deal with life stress and any other specific issues that come up staying connected and united. Couples therapy is an investment in the most valuable thing in your life – your relationship!
Couples therapy helps couples improve communication, resolve conflict, and build stronger relationships. During sessions, each partner will have the opportunity to express their concerns and struggles in a safe and non-judgmental environment. Our expert therapists are trained to listen attentively and give feedback, tools, and guidance with compassion and respect, fostering a deeper connection and helping you reach your relationship goals.

It is OK! Sometimes one partner is more ready to reach out for couples therapy. Often we see that if one partner takes the first step, then the other will join sessions at a later time. Taking the first step can be exactly what your partner needs to see that you are committed to resolving your issues. If your partner still refuses to come to couples therapy, there is a lot you can do, like changing how you respond and react to your partner and giving you tools to implement with your partner at home.

We understand your concern; we need to get both of your perspectives during the session. Our experienced therapists conduct the counseling sessions in such a way that you both will have time to speak and share your thoughts and feelings about the relationship.

If you and your partner are considering a divorce but are not sure that’s the best path, couples therapy can help you gain clarity and confidence about what to do next. Our couples therapy will explore with you the options for your relationship, whether you decide to restore your relationship, move forward towards a divorce, or take time out to reach a more informed decision.

Divorce can be a difficult and painful process. Couples therapy can help you work through intense emotions like anger and fear and learn to separate in a supportive and respectful way.

We welcome all couples no matter what their sexual orientation and gender identification.
