Maybe you've lost desire, have anxiety, or your body isn't functioning the way you'd like it to? Perhaps you are struggling silently with pelvic pain or recovering from sexual violence? Or maybe you just have some unexplored areas or unanswered questions in your sexual life.

A husband and father of two, I have worked with a wide range of clients dealing with a multitude of concerns, including teens and adults individually, couples, and families.
*I AM ACCEPTING NEW ONLINE CLIENTS* So much about our current circumstances is out of our control. We've been placed in situations we did not expect nor plan for. As a result, our levels of anxiety, depression, and disconnect from ourselves and each other may be higher than they have ever been before. Not only can these events affect us as individuals, they can also cause stress to our relationships with our significant others, children, and extended family. I want you to know that I am here to help in these stressful times.

Couples Counseling Therapists

Does couples counseling work?

Research shows that couples counseling is effective; it can reduce relationship distress and improve emotional awareness, communication, empathy, intimacy, and overall relationship satisfaction. For example, emotionally focused therapy was found to be effective for about 75 percent of couples, and those benefits lasted at least two years.

When should a couple seek counseling?

Couples can benefit from counseling if they consistently struggle in their relationship. They may have lost the ability to communicate effectively, become entrenched in harmful patterns, begun to fight more than usual, broken the other’s trust, suffered from a mental or physical illness, or faced any number of other challenges. Many therapists offer free consultations, so if a couple isn’t sure whether therapy is necessary, asking directly can provide clarity.

How can I get my partner to go to couples therapy?

The decision to seek couples therapy is often driven by one partner, who then convinces the other to participate. When discussing the idea, the initiator should be direct and assertive. They can state the problems they see and explain how the relationship would benefit from therapy. In more serious cases, they can also explain how their relationship may suffer without making any changes or seeking professional help.

How does a couple prepare for couples counseling?

The anticipation of beginning couples counseling can be difficult—sometimes more difficult than the first session itself. Taking a few moments to reflect can allay those concerns: What are the current challenges? When and how did they begin? What do they want the relationship to look like in the future? Reflecting on these questions can help individuals or couples articulate their goals. Of course, the therapist will also ask questions and guide couples through the process.
