COUPLES COUNSELING
“We come to love not by finding a perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly.”
- Sam Keen
HEALING RELATIONSHIPS
We offer couples counseling tailored to your relationship and your challenges. Rather than trying to fit you into a model of how a relationship "should" work, we help you and your partner develop a vision of what your ideal relationship looks like. Together we create a plan for bringing your vision to life in the here and now, experiencing your ideal every day. Couples counseling can help you both to be heard and seen deeply and be able to connect and re-ignite passion for each other.
COUPLES INTENSIVE SESSIONS
Couples intensive sessions are designed to be an efficient and immediate way to identify issues that are disrupting your relationship. With the information we gather, together we help create a plan as you move forward.
​
Couple sessions are facilitated by two licensed therapists to provide space in the session to work both individually and together. While we follow a specific structure, each person is given space to bring honesty and vulnerability.
STRUCTURE OF THE SESSIONS
BEFORE THE SESSION
Before our first session, we will meet for an intake session. We will discuss your relationship history and current issues. After the session, each partner receives a series of assessments to complete. The assessments are confidential and not provided to the other partner.
BEGINNING OF SESSION
We begin our session meeting together as a group, the couple and both therapists. We will work together to discuss what is currently happening in the relationship, the results of the assessments, and concerns each partner has in a constructive, non-shaming way.
INDIVIDUAL WORK
The middle of the session will be spent with the couple individually meeting with a therapist. This gives each partner the opportunity to discuss, in a safe environment, what they are experiencing in the relationship. We also will discuss the individual goals pertaining to the relationship.
PATH FORWARD
We end our session meeting all together. We will discuss any additional issues the couple would like to discuss. Together we explore commitment levels and how each partner would like to proceed. Regardless of the path, we will work to identify a plan to move forward giving autonomy.
