Couples Therapy

Maintaining a positive relationship takes work.

A solid and healthy relationship is the cornerstone of a fulfilling life.

However, issues arise in any relationship; some are hard to address without help.

I can support and guide you along the winding path of relationship achievements and hardships.

Positive communication requires openness.

Are you having problems with communication in your relationship that are creating resentment, frustration, and anger?

You might be having the same fight repeatedly that doesn’t seem to resolve itself. Minor disagreements quickly turn into bigger fights and a rehashing of the past.

Maybe there are long-standing issues you haven’t been able to move forward from.

It helps to have a neutral party who can provide each side an opportunity to express how they feel.

The gap is widening.

Is there a sense of loneliness in your relationship and a growing distance between you?

Do you spend more and more time focused on work or outside hobbies and friendships?

Has the friendship, romance, or sexual spark begun to fade in your relationship, and are you unsure how to discuss these issues?

Coming together requires being open about your feelings. Couples therapy provides a space where openness can occur.

Conflicts drive a wedge between couples.

Is there tension in your relationship due to parenting or family conflicts, household division of labor debates, financial concerns or spending differences, sex and intimacy issues, or difficulty balancing career ambition with relationship, parenting, and family expectations?

These are all common relationship conflicts we can identify, address, discuss, and work through in couples counseling.

Don’t let issues or problems build up until they become unmanageable. Invest in your relationship health and see the positive gains in your sense of life satisfaction. Couples therapy is good relationship preventive medicine!

Some relationships struggle with significant issues.

Are you experiencing a crisis in your relationship? Are there issues of addiction (alcohol, drugs, sex, pornography, gambling, food), infidelity, mood problems, secrecy/lying, or high conflict in your relationship?

Are you questioning whether you want to stay married or if you would be better off apart?

Are you going through a separation or divorce process and need support and guidance on navigating the uncoupling experience?

Nothing is as upsetting as a relationship crisis or confusion about navigating a complicated relationship. Finding a resolution is where couples therapy can help.

Couples therapy provides relationship maintenance.

Whether you and your partner need to maintain an already working relationship, want help with communication issues or problems that keep you apart, or need support for significant problems, couples therapy can help.

Don’t let shame, embarrassment, fear, or confusion keep you from getting the help you need.
