Couples Therapy & Marriage Counseling
You're not feeling satisfied in your relationship. You're no longer emotionally connected as you once were.
You used to have intimacy and romance in your relationship, but lately, it seems like it has faded.
You're frustrated with your partner. You don't feel like they hear or respect you anymore. Maybe, you have had trouble communicating or finding time to spend with each other. You both are dealing with the stress of life, work, and parenthood, and you need to do something to reconnect and work on your relationship.
Your Marriage or Relationship Does Not Have to Become a Depressing Statistic
Did you know that the statistic “half of all marriages end in divorce” is simply false? In fact, the US divorce rate has been falling for decades and current studies estimate it’s closer to only 42%. But, this doesn't mean that there are more healthy relationships in the United States. If we expand this figure to include couples who are unhappy or in crisis but will never separate or divorce, then we can see there are large numbers of annoyed, frustrated, glum couples.
But what if you could avoid becoming a statistic? What if you could have the relationship you’ve always craved?
If any of these sound like your relationship...
You and your partner don’t communicate honestly or with respect
- There has been a betrayal of trust or an affair
- You're more like roommates than lovers
- You feel isolated and alone
- Separation is not an option because of your children
- You’d love a wonderful life together
- You both genuinely want to improve your relationship
...Then couples therapy could be for you.

By doing this you will gain a better understanding of each other's perspective and communication styles. Then you will learn tools and techniques to better connect and improve intimacy in your relationship.
Couples Therapy and Marriage Counseling Works!
By encouraging honest, empathetic communication and using strategies to heal the hurt in your relationship, couples counseling becomes an empowering process for both of you. After therapy, couples generally feel more satisfied with their relationship overall. They feel they understand their partner's perspective better. Also, they can communicate more openly and effectively. Couples feel they are able to handle conflict better after learning tools like self-soothing and compromise. Additionally, couples generally report an increase in satisfaction with passion/romance and sexual intimacy. Overall, they feel more emotionally engaged in their relationship.
When both partners are provided with the right tools and healthy insights, relationship frustrations often ease or disappear. Problems become manageable, validation & openness increases. Mature communication paves the way for a calmer, happier relationship. Ultimately, couples therapy gives partners the tools they need to move forward in their relationship in a healthy way.
