Couples Counseling

We provide couples with skills to navigate conflict & strengthen their communication, increase intimacy, and renew their love & understanding for one another.

All relationships take work and dedication to growth, both individually and together!

We help couples rebuild passion within themselves and their relationships to feel motivated to put in the work.

In the beginning, a new relationship often comes with ease. We tend to prioritize and see the best in our partners during this time. This is a healthy stage of development in a relationship where couples start to build emotional safety and intimacy.

Over time, life happens or you just get into a comfortable routine, and the relationship gets less and less attention from you both. You might notice that…

  • life just feels too busy and schedules don't allow for date nights or for spending time just the two of you.

  • you start to resent your partner because you are the default parent and feel exhausted, overwhelmed and burned out doing all of the things.

  • you can’t seem to have a conversation that doesn’t turn into an argument or you are barely speaking to each other at all.

  • sex feels awkward or is non-existent. 

You miss your partner, your relationship and the way things used to be. It’s painful, and you know you want it to be different but aren't sure where to start or if change is even possible.

Couples therapy can help you rebuild that relationship. We believe in starting at the foundational level to create lasting change.

Couples counseling and marriage counseling are about learning how to express your feelings & needs more clearly in the relationship, but also how to listen to and understand your partner better. Honest and open communication that goes both ways is key in any relationship.

You don’t need to be facing a problem in your relationship to start couples therapy.

Many couples wait until there is a significant breakdown in communication or trust to start therapy.

We want to empower you to see the beauty of recognizing that your relationship is something worth putting work into all of the time. Couples therapy is not just about solving problems. Identifying what parts of the relationship are going well and why is just as beneficial as knowing what’s not working. A strained relationship will take a toll on the mental health of both partners, but a relationship with clear communication and mutual understanding will lift you both up.

“Successful long-term relationships are created through small words, small gestures, and small acts.”

— John Gottman

All relationships can benefit from couples therapy.

In addition to developing better communication skills, many couples experience deeper love & intimacy as a result of going through counseling together.

By learning to embrace each other’s uniqueness, you will also learn how to navigate your problems from a place of love and empathy instead of hurt and anger. 

It can be hard to be objective about your relationship when viewing it through your own lens. A couples counselor can provide an unbiased perspective as well as a space where both partners can feel free to be open about their concerns, insecurities, and barriers in the relationship.

We were built to exist in relationships. A strong partnership is the basis of any happy & healthy family - even if it’s a family of two. All families face challenges at some point. But when you and your partner face those challenges together as a team, they are much easier to overcome.

Whether your relationship is navigating infidelity, betrayal, addiction, life transitions and changes, grief, or possible divorce, we are here to help.

If there has been a breach of trust from one or both partners, consulting with a therapist that specializes in couples counseling is the best way to work through it. They can help facilitate important conversations, guide you and your partner in establishing clear boundaries, rebuild trust, get to the root of the challenges and find ways for you to create more meaningful connections.

Having a counselor there to help you navigate the healing process will make a big difference in how you move forward with the relationship. If possible, we recommend that both partners seek individual counseling services as well so that the couples sessions can stay focused on the needs of the relationship.

If you’ve been experiencing any of the following in your marriage or relationship, we encourage you to reach out to one of our therapists for help. 

  • You feel resentment about normal, everyday tasks that typically would not bother you 

  • You notice a decrease in intimacy with your partner 

  • You have an increase in conflicts, or conflicts never feel like they are being resolved 

  • You struggle to have conversations about small disagreements without it escalating to a larger argument 

  • There has been secrecy or a breach of trust from one or both partners
