Couples Therapy

Couples therapy is for when

Relationship challenges often arise when other aspects of our lives become strained. These challenges often stem from significant life changes, such as losing a job, experiencing an injury, dealing with the loss of a loved one, or moving to a new city. These major life events can introduce new obstacles to a relationship.

There are various ways in which relationship challenges can manifest. Perhaps you and your partner are struggling to communicate effectively. It may feel like you're constantly getting caught up in minor issues that lead to arguments. Every week, it seems like you're having difficult conversations and emotions are running high.

Another challenge could involve navigating a major transition together. Whether you're making a big decision, contemplating a significant purchase, or considering adopting a pet or child, working through these changes can be tough.

If you've reached a point where you feel the need to grow as a couple, you're not alone. Many partners seek a deeper, more authentic connection and are searching for ways to strengthen their relationship.

How couples therapy works

Couples therapy offers a unique opportunity to explore the differences in how you and your partner perceive and experience situations. While individual therapy focuses on one person's perspective, relationship therapy dives into the spaces where misunderstandings may arise.

In a relationship, each person brings their own set of life experiences and expectations. However, it's essential to remember that you can't navigate a relationship alone. You must learn to coexist, make decisions together, and support someone who is inherently different from you.

During our sessions, we will work on understanding each other's perspectives and uncovering any assumptions that may be affecting your communication. We will also focus on how you interpret your partner's words and actions, creating a safe space for both of you to express your feelings and needs.

It's common to assume that your partner will react the same way you would in a given situation. Our goal is to help you truly listen to each other and ensure that your voices are heard. Together, we will develop strategies for effectively communicating your needs and providing the support you both require.
