Couples Counseling

Thank you for reaching out! It isn't usually easy for couples to seek help. Unlike the stories we are told about "happy ever after", relationships aren't easy and coming for therapy is investing in your relationship now and for the future. 

Why try couples counseling?

"I am here for you."

You may be in a couple relationship that:

• you feel rejected, rather than respected from your partner
• is filled with loneliness and silence
• you are tired of having the same fights over and over again
• is in constant conflict that never gets resolved
• feels discouraging and hopeless
• lacks affection and tender touch
• feels like the two of you are strangers in the same house
• seems like you can’t talk to each other anymore: where you and your partner don’t feel heard or understood
• you are struggling with trusting your partner after infidelity 
• has lost the spark that brought you together
• is lacking in sexual intimacy
• longs for closeness with one another again…

If you are struggling with getting out of this vicious circle, you are not alone. You are one of many couples nowadays that are feeling lonely, depressed and anxious because of relationship problems. And unfortunately, this affects your mood, your physical health, your work, even people around you, such as your children, your friends and your family. 

But it doesn't have to stay that way...
