Couples Counseling

 

Couples Counseling provides a safe space to explore your relationship, to learn better communication and conflict resolution, to deepen your connection, increase trust, and replace negative patterns with healthier ones. I have extensive training in relationship therapy, which (as I know from personal experience) is vital in improving couple dynamics. Let's work to make your relationship stronger and more supportive.

 

Evidence based therapy methods used in my practice include the Gottman Method based on the following principles of “The Sound Relationship House”:

 

• Create Shared Meaning

• Make Life Dreams Come True

• Manage Conflict

• The Positive Perspective

• Turn Towards Instead of Away

• Share Fondness and Admiration

• Build Love Maps

 

And Emotion-Focused Therapy with the following core principles:

 

• An Empathic Relationship

• Using Emotions as Guides

• Emotional Awareness and Acceptance

• Accessing and Transforming Emotions

• Exploring Attachment Types

• Pattern Identification

 

Couples can not only seek therapy when their relationship is in conflict and they desire to improve it, but are also encouraged to seek counseling proactively to strengthen their bond and lay a better foundation for their future.
