In couple’s counseling, partners work with a therapist to identify patterns and exchanges that are unconstructive in their relationship.

While interaction between couples seems straightforward, there are historical relational dynamics and personal projections that may create barriers to meaning, connection, and intimacy.

  • Language is not universal–in couple’s therapy, improving communication skills is paramount.

  • Couples are in a partnership and must collaborate to solve problems as they emerge in life.

  • Couples counseling allows partners to establish healthy collaboration in which both partners feel their contributions are valued and fair.

Couples’ counseling aims to reduce conflict that creates separation and deepens connection in creating satisfying and productive relationships.
