You're not sure how things got to this point. The disconnection crept up on you without warning, and now you can't see eye to eye on anything. Even the most trivial and minor decisions turn to arguments. It's as though you've completely forgotten how to communicate with each other. Don't give up. It's time to make a decision to put your relationship first and find out what's really going on. I'm LoriAnne Reeves and I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor. My Master's is in Marriage & Family Therapy. I've been in the mental health space for 25 years working with couples, marriages, relationships, and communication.

I specialize in marriage and family issues and also work with individuals.
Most people that enter therapy are stuck...whether it's in relationship conflicts, depressive cycles or life ruts. What helps to get 'unstuck' is a different view and new interactions. I believe all people and situations can change if you want them too. I work well with motivated and dedicated people and help you to find new solutions to your daily problems and conflicts. I am a very interactive, directive, and coaching based therapist who believes that without the skills necessary, the problems interactions will remain the same.

Deliberate care and maturation of the couple relationship is necessary for the well-being of the overall couple/family system and the quality of your life(s). Sustaining an intimate and healthy marriage or partnership demands intentional acts and ongoing effort. Inevitable conflicts may arise from diverse familial and cultural backgrounds, lived experiences, traumas, attachments, beliefs and core values, and varied methodologies of communication and conflict resolution. Daily challenges and life’s adversities may hinder the closeness and connection between partners, as it can activate the vicious cycle couples get caught in.

Marriage Counseling Therapists

How does marriage counseling work?

Marriage counseling works by teaching couples concrete skills to communicate with one another and solve disagreements in healthy ways. A trained mental health professional works with both members of a couple to explore difficulties the couple may be having and helps them develop skills to address these matters. Couples who don’t have any difficulties but want to prepare for marriage may develop skills for the future.

How long does marriage counseling typically last?

Marriage counseling is a short-term form of therapy; the process may last between four and eight sessions. Other forms of relationship guidance from mental health professionals, such as couples therapy, are longer lasting, may focus on the past rather than just the present, and are tailored to the individual couple and their emotions, history, and patterns in the relationship. Couples therapy often lasts for 12 weeks or longer.

Is marriage counseling effective?

Marriage counseling helps many couples develop relationship skills that may not have been acquired or tested in a relationship; partners may be better able to communicate and address conflict following counseling. However, there are many different forms of marriage counseling, and this form of counseling does not have as strong an evidence base as other modalities such as couples therapy.

Is marriage counseling effective if only one partner wants to go?

Yes, marriage counseling can still be effective if one partner convinces the other to engage in the process. Of course, whether counseling is effective depends on the couple’s commitment to work on their relationship; however, the short-term, skills-based nature of marriage counseling makes it a relatively easy “ask” of a partner, and the hesitant individual may see its value once counseling begins.
