Couples Therapy: Healing and Strengthening Relationships

Life has a way of impacting a relationship.

There are many reasons people come to see me for couples therapy. Sometimes there’s a particular conflict about which two people cannot agree.

These conflicts include setting appropriate boundaries with in-laws, financial disagreements, decisions about having or raising kids, navigating parenthood, and overcoming disagreements.

Sometimes, relationship problems involve deeper wounds caused by an affair, an addiction, financial debt, the loss of a job, or something else. Restoring your relationship can take time, and therapy acts as a balm for wounds to heal.

Other times, couples seek pre-marital counseling, pre-baby counseling, or just routine check-ins about the relationship to obtain a professional perspective.

Couples therapy helps improve a relationship.

When we’re in conflict, it can be challenging to think and communicate clearly. Perfectly rational and intelligent adults can find themselves behaving in ways that are very unlike them. Couples can argue for hours and not get anywhere. This experience can be both frustrating and exhausting.

In these circumstances, therapy is tremendously helpful at returning your relationship to a place of peace and connection. My role begins with facilitating healthy communication so that both parties feel heard and understood. From there, we will walk through the healing process of the fractured relationship.

You can find an answer to the discord.

As we engage in this process of repairing your relationship, I will teach you to notice things in yourself and your partner that will allow you to understand each other in a new way.

One of my biggest joys of being a therapist is seeing the bonding and strengthening of relationships right before my eyes. I love working with couples, and I’d love to work with you.
