Couples Counseling
The brilliance and connection with another person is more than just a desire; it is a fundamental human need.
The lack of intimacy can be completely painful, and studies show it to be a cause of depression and anxiety. A happy and healthy relationship can bring so much joy and help you through stressful moments in life, but a problematic relationship can be one of the most disturbing experiences imaginable. Few things in life compare to those that consume intense and often intrusive and/or obsessive thoughts and feelings.
When to seek couples counseling
Couples counseling is not just useful when things are falling apart. It can also be helpful at many other times. Sometimes it’s useful when you take a new step forward (or backward), such as moving in together, getting married, or having children. Or even when you first start dating someone. Couples counseling helps if you want to check in or just be sure that you’re still in the best possible place you can be. It helps if you want to deepen your connection and become closer to your partner, or improve an already great relationship with a few modest adjustments. When you want to end the relationship, the therapist can help, especially when children are involved.
How can couples counseling help?
Most of us have never been taught any relationship skills. We may have learned from what we saw in our families, from friends, the media, books, or the internet. But most of us simply have no idea what we’re really doing. Couples counseling and therapy will teach you the essential skills needed to be successful in your relationship. Knowing and understanding your needs. Being able to communicate your needs in a way your partner can hear. Learning to listen and respect your partner's needs and feelings.
Build a Strong, Happy, Healthy, and Loving Relationship
We will not blame or shame either partner, but will work together to identify the problematic areas in the most constructive possible ways. Our therapist will teach you everything we know and can to help you fix things. Working together as a team in this pursuit, we will try to make it a pleasant and exciting experience for everyone. Couples counseling will help you:
- Learn how to resolve conflicts
- Process core pain and anger
- Heal your past
- Recognize your habits and beliefs
- Use relationship skills that work
- Renew respect, trust, and love
Our therapeutic process
Your first step is to contact us to schedule your initial appointment. We work hard to connect you with a therapist whom we believe is the best fit for you and your current struggles.
Your initial evaluation session provides you with the opportunity to build a rapport with the therapist and give them some background about yourself and the reasons you're seeking counseling. Additionally, they will be able to answer any questions you may have regarding the services, confidentiality, and what to expect during therapy. Keeping your best interests in mind, together you will decide on the treatment that will benefit you the most.
At the end of your first session, if you decide to continue and work with that therapist, you will be asked to schedule additional appointments. During your second session, you will collaborate with your therapist to set goals for your overall therapy experience and begin working together to achieve them.
