Couples Counseling

If something matters to you, isn’t it important to take care of it?

This is how I see the basis of couples counseling. Whether it is seeking support to manage a hard conversation, learning new skills to communicate, or even as a relationship check up, couples counseling is a way to foster growth in a relationship.

Sometimes this looks like learning new ways to communicate between partners, sometimes this means having the hard conversations people so often avoid, and sometimes this means taking time to listen, instead of continuing to speak. The process isn’t always easy or comfortable, because addressing the things we avoid can bring up uncomfortable emotions. And that’s the point: you can’t fix something if you aren’t willing to address what isn’t working.
