COUPLE THERAPY

Any problem that occurs within a relationship is a relationship problem.  The problem does not lie only in one person.  Couple Therapy is a space where the couple and I come together to figure out how they can become unstuck and move forward with their lives.

 

Usually, people who engage me are either in crisis mode or are in a standstill within their relationship.  They describe themselves as feeling stuck, losing hope, being despondent, showing anger toward each other, etc.  Together we examine where each person is in the relationship and focus on solving the root problems.

 

I first look at what each individual needs and then consider what the couple needs.  I work with the couple to put out the current fires and then plan for the future. 

 

The process typically follows this format:

• Creating a safe space for you to speak/listen to your significant other

• Understanding your problems and their origins

• Getting to know you and your goal(s) as a couple

• Redirecting fights

• Help resolving issues

 

Couple Therapy is a one hour Zoom session each week.

Both people need to attend.

 

Because I want Couple Therapy to be accessible to everyone who needs it, I work on a sliding scale fee.  This means that I account for your resources and expenses.  Fees will be discussed during the first session.
