Couples Therapy

Feeling Disconnected in Your Relationship?

Even strong relationships go through difficult seasons. Maybe you and your partner are arguing more than usual. Maybe it feels like you’re growing apart, or communication has broken down entirely. You might be wondering: Can we fix this?

The answer is yes—and you don’t have to do it alone.

Our Approach to Couples Therapy

Every relationship is unique, and we believe therapy should reflect that. Rather than using a one-size-fits-all model, we tailor our approach to your specific dynamics, values, and goals. Drawing from evidence-based methods like the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), we help couples build stronger communication, emotional connection, and resilience. Whether you’re in crisis, preparing for a big life change, or simply wanting to strengthen your bond, we help you:

We create a space for mutual insight, healing, and forward movement—whether you're looking to repair or redefine your relationship.

Couples therapy is a collaborative process where both partners work with a trained therapist to strengthen their relationship. At our practice, we provide a supportive and nonjudgmental space to help couples navigate challenges, improve communication, and reconnect emotionally. We draw from evidence-based approaches like the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to guide our work.

Couples come to us for a wide range of reasons, including:

  • Communication difficulties
  • Frequent conflict or gridlocked issues
  • Emotional disconnection
  • Infidelity or trust repair
  • Intimacy or sexual concerns
  • Parenting or co-parenting challenges
  • Life transitions (e.g., new baby, relocation, career changes)
  • Premarital counseling or relationship check-ins

Our therapists use tools from the Gottman Method, which focuses on strengthening friendship, managing conflict, and building shared meaning. We also integrate EFT, which helps couples create secure emotional bonds by identifying negative cycles and fostering emotional responsiveness.

No. Our therapists are committed to supporting both partners equally. We work to understand each of your perspectives and help you shift out of blame and into connection. Using frameworks like EFT, we focus on the emotional patterns underneath the conflict, not on who's “right” or “wrong.”

In your first session, we’ll explore what’s bringing you in, learn more about your relationship history, and begin identifying patterns that may be keeping you stuck. It’s also an opportunity to get a feel for the process and ensure a good fit with your therapist.
Couples sessions typically last a little under an hour.
Most couples begin with weekly sessions to build momentum and consistency. We may adjust frequency as therapy progresses, depending on your goals and needs.
Most sessions are conducted together, but occasionally your therapist may recommend individual sessions as part of the assessment process—particularly in Gottman-informed work. If that’s the case, we’ll explain how it supports the therapy process and maintain transparency throughout.
Yes. We take confidentiality seriously. Your sessions are private, and we’ll review our confidentiality policy at the beginning so you understand how we handle sensitive information, especially when working with two clients at once.
Yes, we offer secure online couples therapy. Whether you're joining from the same space or different locations, virtual sessions are a convenient way to stay connected and supported in your relationship.
