Couples
Relationship problems are common and every couple has them. The way the problem is handled determines the success of a relationship.
Over the course of a relationship, each individual continues to grow and change. This often leads to the relationship changing and sometimes can lead to conflicts. Sometimes, the conflicts stem from the role-models and relationships that you learned from. These relationships may have not been the healthiest, but it was what you knew and what was normal for you. Other times, these relationships were healthy but the values and dynamics were very different. Whatever the reason may be for the relationship problems you are experiencing, as long as both you and your partner are willing to consider change, there is hope for your relationship.

Let’s work on bringing the spark back and strengthening your relationship!
Get a Head Start
If you plan on getting married or engaged soon, pre-marital counseling can be very helpful in building a solid foundation for the life you both will create together. Oftentimes, we have envision the life we want and assume that our partner wants the same things. In pre-marital couples therapy, I can help facilitate discussions about hypothetical (but very common) issues that come up for married couples (e.g., finances, division of labor (work and household), expectations, children, etc.). I strive to create a safe and warm environment where you and your partner can practice healthy conflict-resolution skills, improve your communication, and plan for maintaining the spark/friendship in your relationship.
