Couples Counseling

Do you feel like your relationship is at a standstill? Are you and your partner stuck in the same argument loop every night? Do you feel like you and your partner are drifting away? Do you desire more intimacy between you and your partner?

All things can be improved, changed, and bettered with just a little support, no matter how big or small. With couples therapy, you’ll learn how to communicate your feelings and needs, and get what you want out of your relationship.

Investing in your relationship is one of the most meaningful choices you can make—for yourself, your partner, and your future together.

Does this sound familiar?

“We can’t seem to agree on anything.”
“Every conversation turns into an argument.”
“I don’t feel heard.”
“I feel like I’m always nagging.”
“I wish we could just enjoy each other again.”

If so, you’re not alone. Healthy communication and conflict resolution don’t come naturally—they’re skills we learn and practice. Counseling can help you and your partner rebuild trust, strengthen your connection, and find joy in your relationship again.

What to Expect in Couples Counseling

The goal of counseling isn’t to make you agree on everything. Instead, it’s about:

Learning to listen and be heard.
Communicating without constant conflict.
Reconnecting emotionally and rediscovering why you chose each other.
Building a shared vision for your future.

While we will address the difficult issues that keep you feeling stuck, sessions also make room for laughter, hope, and growth.

Our Approach

We use Gottman Method Couples Therapy, a research-based and structured approach that helps couples identify patterns, work through challenges, and develop lasting tools for connection.

This approach may be a good fit for you if:

You want to strengthen your bond and improve communication.
You’re motivated to put in the time and effort.
You’re willing to complete questionnaires to help guide the process.

This service is not a fit if:

You are currently preparing for divorce proceedings.
There is ongoing domestic violence. (If you are in danger, please reach out to Crime Victims Resource Center
One partner is experiencing suicidal thoughts or has a plan to harm themselves or others. (Call or text 988 for the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.)
There is an ongoing affair.

Session Structure

Here’s what the process looks like:

Initial joint session (55 minutes): Discuss your goals, concerns, and questions.
Two individual sessions (50 minutes each): Each partner meets with me separately. One session may be covered by insurance; the other is paid out-of-pocket ($125).
Online assessments: Each partner completes structured questionnaires (approx. $39, paid out-of-pocket).
Feedback session (55 minutes): We review your results and create a personalized plan for moving forward.

Insurance & Payment

Couples counseling can be billed through insurance, though one partner must be identified as the primary client. You may also use an HSA or flex spending account to pay for sessions.

Your relationship is worth the investment. If you’re ready to begin this journey together, please reach out with any questions or to schedule your first session.
