Living in doubt and shame is exhausting. It's isolating. It keeps us from having the relationships that we want. And how fulfilling it would be to connect with others and be heard and understood! Past hurt and current doubt keep us from moving forward. Therapy can help manage the doubt, pain, and uncertainty you're experiencing. It might feel intimidating to go to treatment, and it's easy to put it off, but I hope you'll consider what it would be like to have the life and relationships you desire. The first step is reaching out to see your goals and how therapy can help.

We are more than the sum of our parts. We are complex and beautiful. We seek to feel alive, feel loved. To achieve long lasting change and well-being it is essential to address an ailment/symptom at its roots and consider the full mind, body, and spirit connection, our environment, and the whole system in which we aim to function. Using treatment to address a symptom might not address the issues that causes the symptom. Holistic Counseling looks at the whole picture, not just the color that is peeling off the picture's corner. I truly believe each person has the capacity, strength, and ability to flourish and achieve their goals.

Couples Counseling Therapists
Does couples counseling work?
Research shows that couples counseling is effective; it can reduce relationship distress and improve emotional awareness, communication, empathy, intimacy, and overall relationship satisfaction. For example, emotionally focused therapy was found to be effective for about 75 percent of couples, and those benefits lasted at least two years.
When should a couple seek counseling?
Couples can benefit from counseling if they consistently struggle in their relationship. They may have lost the ability to communicate effectively, become entrenched in harmful patterns, begun to fight more than usual, broken the other’s trust, suffered from a mental or physical illness, or faced any number of other challenges. Many therapists offer free consultations, so if a couple isn’t sure whether therapy is necessary, asking directly can provide clarity.
How can I get my partner to go to couples therapy?
The decision to seek couples therapy is often driven by one partner, who then convinces the other to participate. When discussing the idea, the initiator should be direct and assertive. They can state the problems they see and explain how the relationship would benefit from therapy. In more serious cases, they can also explain how their relationship may suffer without making any changes or seeking professional help.
How does a couple prepare for couples counseling?
The anticipation of beginning couples counseling can be difficult—sometimes more difficult than the first session itself. Taking a few moments to reflect can allay those concerns: What are the current challenges? When and how did they begin? What do they want the relationship to look like in the future? Reflecting on these questions can help individuals or couples articulate their goals. Of course, the therapist will also ask questions and guide couples through the process.
