Couples Counseling

Love is blind

There is nothing like the exhilarating feelings we experience at the beginning of a new romantic relationship. Everything is bright, cheerful, and great!

At some point, the rose-colored glasses come off, and your relationship starts to look and feel different.

You’ve lost that loving feeling

The couple starts disconnecting from each other.

The hot romantic flame starts to diminish.

Frustration, disappointment, anger, and resentment start to develop.

Hopes, dreams, and your future start to fade.

Uncertainty starts to emerge.

Nothing changes

You’ve been trying to make things better, but it always seems like the relationship gets off course.

You commit to doing new things for the relationship to get back on track, but that only lasts for so long.

You’ve had endless conversations with each other; but those usually end up in a screaming match, talking in circles, or just avoiding the conversations all together.

Nothing seems to get resolved.

Having the parts work together

A relationship is the sum of all its parts.

When two people come together and become a couple, each person comes with their own uniqueness to the relationship. Everyone has their own personality, family experiences, values, beliefs, expectations, communication style, and ways of expressing love.

As your therapist, I recognize that you and your partner bring to the relationship all the components that make you who you are. Sometimes they are cohesive, but other times they conflict.

Throughout life, each partner has learned how to communicate, problem solve, and cope with life’s obstacles. Those skills might work for them individually, but not for the relationship.

Getting the relationship on track

Throughout couples counseling, I encourage the couple to be completely transparent with each other. No secrets or lies. The truth, whether good or bad, needs to be put on the table for the relationship to move forward in a healthy direction.

My office is a safe and welcoming environment where the two of you can come and work out the kinks in your relationship.

It is the perfect setting for you and your partner to learn and practice new skills. Whether it be improving your communication skills, rebuilding trust, or rekindling the flame, I am dedicated to helping you achieve your goals.
