Relationships can be damaged and difficult.
Relationships can be damaged by such things as infidelity, substance use, and lack of intimacy. Other times, life stressors such as children and parenting concerns, job changes, and moves can lead to a couple’s difficulties.
Couples and marriage counseling helps address those difficulties. Through couples counseling, you learn to identify and change the negative cycles stopping you from achieving the relationship you want.
Counseling can help you achieve a healthy relationship together.
Sometimes, hope is hard to come by in a relationship.
Often, we carry behavioral patterns from childhood into our present-day relationships, and our partner has no idea how to respond to our bids for connection. Marriage or couples therapy is a process of looking at your relationship honestly, identifying the blocks to your relationship’s growth, and taking the time to address these blocks intentionally.
A healthy relationship is one in which there is:
- A commitment to each other.
- An effective communication system.
- The ability to accept conflict positively and resolve it creatively.
- The ability to express and receive love and affection.
