Couples Therapy
Do you feel like your relationship is at a standstill? Are you and your partner stuck in the same argument loop every night? Do you feel like you and your partner are drifting away? Do you desire more intimacy between you and your partner?
Each person comes into a marriage with their own needs, desires, expectations, and fantasies about what a romantic relationship could be and should be. Each individual also brings with them their own unique conditioning from what they experienced and saw modeled for them within their family of origin. Sometimes people bring traumatic experiences and memories into relationships that can drive defensive reactions. On top of these complexities, men and women often have very different social scripts when it comes to sexual intimacy. These contrasting social scripts ofter lead to conflicts that couples do not know how to navigate or discuss. Through reflection, exploration, and clear communication, many of these issues can be resolved so that couples move toward more fulfilling intimacy and connection.
Some issues that bring couples to therapy are:
- Addiction/Partner Addiction Support
