Your Relationship Deserves Support

Are you and your partner feeling disconnected lately? Does it seem like you are not seeing eye to eye anymore? Are there barriers blocking your ability to trust or be intimate with one another? Whether your relationship is suffering because of conflict, infidelity, or abuse, or whether you are simply looking to rekindle the flame, couples therapy can help.

Healthy relationships flow with ease despite the difficulties that may arise. If that’s not what you are experiencing, take it as a sign that your relationship might need recalibrating. Couples therapy has supported many coupled individuals in confronting, addressing, and overcoming challenges.

Our holistic approach views each partner as a whole, considering your Body, Mind, and Spirit to facilitate your healing journey within the relationship. You don’t have to keep struggling, feeling misunderstood, or upset by your behavior or your partner’s actions. There is a way, and you both deserve a chance to find it. We can help you navigate your path to a healthier life. 

Couples therapy (or couples counseling) is the gold standard psychological treatment for relationship issues. Couples therapy involves confidential sessions where you and your partner will have the opportunity to gain insight, hear and learn from each other—all with your therapist’s support and guidance. The goal is to have you both act as a team to work through your difficulties and find a way to move forward.Regardless of your situation, cultural background, or relationship status, you and your partner can benefit from couples therapy sessions to:

• Access difficult thoughts and emotions
• Gain skills and tools for effective communication
• Open up, listen with patience, and intention
• Help you see, understand and respect each other
• Identify and address conflicts
• Discover underlying implications of obstacles
• Learn strategies to enhance your relationship
• Shift unhealthy habits to healthier and sustainable dynamics
• Revitalize and strengthen your bond

Couples therapy can help you and your partner in every phase of your relationship—from the early stages to the established ones. No matter where you are in your relationship, you don’t have to wait and hope that things will get better. Take action today, and make your bond stronger.

Your relationship doesn’t have to be in crisis for therapy to make a difference. Perhaps your relationship only needs a boost, a chance to reconnect and flourish. The truth is, every relationship can benefit from couples therapy. We all have space to grow and can lay the groundwork to prepare for challenges that may come our way.

As couples therapists, our mission is to help your relationship improve, grow, and become self-sustaining. Couples therapy starts with exploring your relationship, background, and values. Your couples counselor will help you and your partner identify the issues at hand and desired goals, tailoring treatment to your needs. Your therapist is there to support you both in developing skills and implementing tools to address those challenges.
Couples therapy can be about recovering your shared sense of trust, bolstering your connection, and fostering healthier communication:

• Trust is the foundation of healthy relationships. It involves commitment, safety, and reliability. When there’s a breach of trust, that foundation cracks, resulting in instability and insecurity. Couples therapy can help you work through your trust problems so you can rebuild a solid footing and move forward.
• Connection implies physical and emotional intimacy. Connected partners feel drawn to each other and are comfortable with being vulnerable. A lack of connection can translate into being distant, having less interest in your sex life or affection in general. Couples therapy can bring you together to reconnect and harness attunement towards each other.
• Communication strengthens couples’ trust and connection. Having healthy communication means being able to identify & express your needs, listening, and respecting each other. Poor interactions may lead to frustration, feeling judged, or like your loved one doesn’t speak your language. Couples therapy can help pinpoint harmful habits and find alternative ways to communicate.

We focus on providing tailored treatments to help you and your partner achieve balance and well-being. Our approach considers each individual, their physical condition, thoughts, emotions, and essence. Our multicultural team has a wealth of experience in various modalities such as Psychodynamic Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Interpersonal Therapy (IPT), Mindfulness-based methods, Gottman methods and Imago techniques.
