Sometimes bad things happened in your relationship months or years ago that still haunt you today.
Are you tired of being the “dependable one” in your family!? You are juggling multiple roles of mom, wife, career woman. Everyone thinks you are superwoman, yet you are struggling silently. Despite excelling in your career and academia your inner critic says that you are “not good enough” & you need to be doing more! I see you. Maybe you are a professional, power couple looking to “boss up” at work without leaving your relationship behind. Let’s face it, life is hard…Marriage is hard…Raising kids is hard! Between work, kids, and family obligations we have very little left to give! And guess who gets our leftovers? Our marriage!

My work with couples involves different stages of relationships including dating, premarital, newlyweds, long-term, long-distance, and divorce.
Managing relationships, balancing priorities, and maintaining a healthy and meaningful lifestyle can be challenging. Therapy is often a primary resource used to gain better insights that help us become experts on our own lives. I believe in a solution focused and motivational style to therapy, while collaborating and working together with my patient to meet goals and create successes. Living a more valued and meaningful life helps in symptom reduction and improves overall quality of life and happiness.

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.
