Couples, Marriage, and Family Counseling and Therapy

Our goal is to provide couples with evidence-based, appropriate, and individualized guidance and support in their relationship to improve communication, resolve conflicts, and make their relationship stronger. Sexual orientation, gender identity, marital status, and relationship identification are not relevant to the effectiveness of this process. All couples can benefit and are welcome. 

Counseling and therapy will help improve conversations around the struggles and connections being experienced. It allows each partner in the relationship to safely and effectively share what they are feeling and thinking. We also work on the core issues and address any negative communication patterns that are identified during this process.

Couples and marriage counseling and therapy focus on making significant changes to the harmful patterns, negative beliefs about each other, and improving communication between the couple. 

Our goal in family counseling and therapy is to work to improve communication between the family members, resolve conflicts within the family unit, and strengthen the relationship between the family members. Family counseling and therapy address all of the issues that affect the family system as a unit, assisting the family members to better understand one another so that they can support each other in a healthy way that promotes healthier dynamics within the family unit. We do this by encouraging honest, open, and safe communication.

Work from a position of empathy. This allows each family member to safely discuss their feelings and thoughts. The foundation for conflict resolution is based on honest and safe communication, which helps build strong connections with each other.

The sessions can be with the entire family unit, or they can consist of only specific members who are the most negatively affected by the current relationships and dynamics. We welcome all families, traditional and non-traditional, and all definitions of what their family unit is.
