Couples Therapy
Romantic relationships can bring about a sense of joy, acceptance, and fulfillment. They can also produce feelings of hopelessness, frustration, pain, sadness, and shame. Whether you are dating, living together, committed partners, considering marriage, or married, couples therapy can help you and your partner navigate these challenges and strengthen your bond.
What to Expect
In couples therapy, we’ll walk with you and your partner to identify and interrupt the emotional triggers and/or toxic behavioral patterns that undermine your love for each other. Our sessions provide a collaborative and supportive space for both partners to express their feelings and concerns openly. Together, we'll work on uncovering your authentic selves while fostering intimate connection and understanding.
