Couples Counseling

Experiencing relationship challenges can profoundly impact your emotional well-being and daily life. Choosing couples therapy can provide the guidance and support needed to overcome these difficulties and fortify your connection.

We have extensive experience in couples and family therapy, particularly in addressing issues related to loss and helping families build secure attachments. A healthy and secure connection between family members is crucial for emotional, relational, and psychological well-being. Our approach integrates attachment theory, which emphasizes the importance of emotional bonds, as Sue Johnson notes, "The quality of the emotional bond is a powerful predictor of relationship satisfaction and stability."

​

Our therapy process uses various methodologies to meet the unique needs of each couple and family. These include solution-focused, emotionally-focused, cognitive-behavioral, and Gottman-method approaches. By utilizing these evidence-based techniques, we aim to provide comprehensive support that fosters resilience and connection within the family unit.

We strive to create a safe and collaborative environment for all participants, encouraging trust, emotional safety, and the feeling of being seen and heard.

 

This supportive atmosphere is essential for effective therapy, as it helps individuals and families navigate their challenges and work towards lasting, positive changes in their relationships.
