Couples Therapy

Relationships can be challenging, and couples often need help navigating difficulties.  I work with couples on improving their relationship, whether they are dealing with communication issues or more complicated dynamics such as infidelity.  Couples therapy focuses on the current difficulties that partners are experiencing, as well as the ways in which couples are caring for or nurturing one another.  There is also an emphasis on what each partner learned about relationships from their family-of-origin and previous relationship experiences, and how this might impact their current relationship.  

Couples work is very active. Clients are often assigned homework to reinforce what has been discussed in therapy sessions.  It is important for couples to learn new ways to communicate and to practice these new skills outside of the therapy sessions.
