Couples Therapy

All couples experience stress and difficulty in their relationships. Few of us are given the education about how to create a successful relationship. Many of us grow up believing myths about relationships, especially romantic ones.

S/he should know what I want.
If s/he loves me then I shouldn’t have to tell him/her what I want or need.
Love is all we need.
Couples in love don’t fight.

There are many of these influencing our beliefs and unfortunately these myths create unrealistic expectations for the relationship. Counseling provides education and helps the couple create healthy expectations and therefore stronger relationships.

The most common reasons people come in for therapy are communication concerns. Either one or both persons does not feel heard by the partner. Our practice assists all couples, heterosexual, homosexual, married and unmarried, in creating a style of communication that meets the needs of both people.

Couples therapy allows both members to express his/her concerns and to be heard. The therapist works with the couple to discover both persons’ needs and assists the couple in having those needs met.

You may want to consider couple’s therapy if:

You and your partner argue more then you would like;
There doesn’t seem to be a resolution to your disagreements;
You have the same fight over and over again;
Either one or both feels unheard or misunderstood;
Would like to improve conflict resolution skills.
