Couples therapy involves the active resolution of difficulties experienced by two people in an intimate relationship. This could include couples who are dating, partnered, engaged, or married. In such therapy sessions, couples have the opportunity to discuss conflicts and aspects of their relationship that they would like to change. As a therapist, I help them understand how their beliefs, backgrounds, and actions can impact their relationship. I often guide couples towards implementing effective strategies to foster a healthier and happier relationship, such as learning to listen, argue constructively, and express their feelings. Couples may seek therapy to resolve problems or to determine if they should commit to staying together legally.
