Couples and Marital Therapy

Couples therapy helps partners experience their relationship differently by better understanding one another, creating and maintaining respect within the relationship and working to defuse recurring conflicts. Moreover, therapy provides a safe environment to explore needs, fears, desires, and expectations from a relational and individual perspective. Couples therapy can help with communication and problem-solving skills, financial stressors, sexual issues, parenting conflicts, infidelities, and changing roles.

Our goal is to assist each couple in identifying the obstacles within their relationship and to explore underlying assumptions and expectations that often lead to criticism and emotional detachment. We can help you improve supportive communication, learn conflict resolution, build trust, understand your partner, enhance fondness, create a meaningful life together, avoid pitfalls of criticism, stonewalling, defensiveness, and contempt, and start a new relationship with your current partner. Our hope is to foster a positive core and balance for each relationship, which can be accomplished by improving the couple’s bond, to ensure lasting change and wellness.

Be the couple you aspire to be.
