Searching for a therapist takes courage. Finding the right fit takes often some work and a bit of luck. However, when the relationship between the patient and therapist goes well, the results can be life-changing. Therapy can empower people to see themselves and others more clearly. This can lead to deepened relationships, symptom relief, and a more hopeful outlook.

Most clients come to therapy because they feel stuck. Some of my clients have inner conflicts, high-stress levels, or trauma that prevent them from forming meaningful relationships or being productive. They also don't know which option to take when faced with tough choices. Should you stay or walk out? Life commitments, family dysfunction, and questions about their ability to do the right thing when faced with decisions are so challenging. Sometimes we get to a certain stage in our lives where we could use a professional to help us navigate uncertainties. And that is when I step in to work with you through your struggles.

Marriage Counseling Therapists

How does marriage counseling work?

Marriage counseling works by teaching couples concrete skills to communicate with one another and solve disagreements in healthy ways. A trained mental health professional works with both members of a couple to explore difficulties the couple may be having and helps them develop skills to address these matters. Couples who don’t have any difficulties but want to prepare for marriage may develop skills for the future.

How long does marriage counseling typically last?

Marriage counseling is a short-term form of therapy; the process may last between four and eight sessions. Other forms of relationship guidance from mental health professionals, such as couples therapy, are longer lasting, may focus on the past rather than just the present, and are tailored to the individual couple and their emotions, history, and patterns in the relationship. Couples therapy often lasts for 12 weeks or longer.

Is marriage counseling effective?

Marriage counseling helps many couples develop relationship skills that may not have been acquired or tested in a relationship; partners may be better able to communicate and address conflict following counseling. However, there are many different forms of marriage counseling, and this form of counseling does not have as strong an evidence base as other modalities such as couples therapy.

Is marriage counseling effective if only one partner wants to go?

Yes, marriage counseling can still be effective if one partner convinces the other to engage in the process. Of course, whether counseling is effective depends on the couple’s commitment to work on their relationship; however, the short-term, skills-based nature of marriage counseling makes it a relatively easy “ask” of a partner, and the hesitant individual may see its value once counseling begins.
