HOW WE HELP

Couples Therapy

Couples counseling is often provided by licensed marriage and family therapists. These therapists have graduate or postgraduate degrees and many choose to become credentialed by the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT). 

Couples counseling typically includes both partners, but sometimes one partner chooses to work with a therapist alone. The specific treatment plan depends on the situation. Couples counseling can help couples in all types of intimate relationships regardless of sexual orientation or marital status.

Some couples seek couples counseling to strengthen their partnership and gain a better understanding of each other. Couples counseling can also help people who plan to get married by fostering a deeper understanding of each other and encourage working through differences before marriage.
 

People also seek couples therapy for many specific issues, including:
 

• Communication problems

• Sexual difficulties

• Conflicts about child-rearing or blended families

• Substance abuse

• Anger

• Infidelity

​

Relationships are at the core of what we value in life. Everyone deserves to be in a partnership where both people feel loved and valued. Regardless of what is keeping you from connecting with your partner, couples therapy can help.
