Couples Therapy

Couples therapy offers a supportive, nonjudgmental space where partners can explore challenges, improve communication, and deepen emotional connection. Whether you're facing recurring conflicts, navigating major life transitions, or simply seeking to strengthen your bond, therapy helps you better understand each other and build healthier, more fulfilling patterns of interaction. Guided by your therapist, couples learn to resolve disagreements constructively, rebuild trust, and foster lasting intimacy.

The therapist helps both partners explore:

• Patterns of conflict

• Communication styles

• Emotional needs and unmet expectations

• Intimacy and trust

• Individual histories that may be influencing the relationship

The focus is on helping the couple work as a team — not blaming one person or “fixing” the other.

Who Is It For?

Couples therapy is helpful for people who are:

• Arguing frequently or feeling disconnected

• Struggling with trust, jealousy, or betrayal

• Recovering from infidelity

• Dealing with life transitions (new baby, moving, career change)

• Having intimacy or sexual challenges

• Facing parenting or family disagreements

• Wanting to strengthen their bond or prepare for the future

You don’t need to be in crisis to go — it can be proactive, too.

What Happens in Sessions?

Sessions are usually joint, but sometimes the therapist might meet with each partner individually at first or throughout.

A typical session might include:

• Identifying communication breakdowns

• Exploring emotional needs, attachment styles, and triggers

• Learning tools to de-escalate arguments

• Practicing healthy communication and listening skills

• Discussing shared values, goals, and areas of misalignment

A good therapist stays neutral — they’re not on one partner’s “side,” but help both people feel heard.
