What is Couples Therapy?
Couples therapy, also known as marriage or relationship counseling, is a form of psychotherapy designed to help couples address and resolve issues within their relationship. Our experienced therapists use evidence-based techniques to foster understanding, improve communication, and rebuild trust between partners.
What to Expect
During your sessions, you can expect a structured, supportive environment based on evidence-based practices. Research shows that couples who engage in structured therapy often experience significant improvements in communication clarity. We use validated assessment tools to measure your progress throughout therapy, allowing you to see tangible improvements in your relationship dynamics.
