COUPLES THERAPY

Couples therapy can assist with communication so the needs and concerns of each partner are heard. A couples counselor will not “take sides,” but will instead foster a supportive environment in which the therapeutic process can progress naturally. There is no set time frame in which a relationship can be transformed. The strengthening and positive changes in a relationship will occur at their own pace, in part affected by the willingness of each partner to commit to the process. With the services of a trained therapist, partners can gain the ability to offer more support to one another, to listen respectfully to thoughts, needs, and emotions, and to communicate lovingly and effectively.
