It involves regularly scheduled sessions, typically 1-3 times a week, depending on your needs.

The therapist listens and helps you understand your emotions and behaviors, offering support with techniques tailored to you. 

Couples therapy can be beneficial for couples in any stage of their relationship—dating, engaged, married, separated or divorced—and of any orientation—monogamous, polyamorous, LGBTQIA+, etc. It equips both parties with essential tools for achieving honest, respectful, and effective two-way communication, which can prevent arguments and replace resentment with mutual respect. In couples therapy, couples learn new skills that allow them to build intimacy while maintaining their individual identities.

Common issues addressed in couples therapy include communication difficulties, intimacy problems, sexual issues, financial conflicts, decreased relationship fun, infidelity, domestic conflict, blending family challenges, parenting issues, anger management, power struggles, lack of mutual respect, work conflicts, and overall relationship dissatisfaction.
