A professional working with couples will help first to clarify the main issue brought to the first session. Usually there is much more going on between two people, and a therapist will help the two dig alittle deeper. Maybe old anger is a roadblock....or resentments. Unforgiveness is a big stummbling block. After a thorough evaluation, usually meeting each individual seperately for at least one time, then together. You will dicide want you want to change, improve upon, and goals you wish to obtain for your relationship. You can expect improvement of communication tools and skills to progress. Each partner must be willing to look a themselves as homework is given weekly.

Couples of all kinds struggle. I can help you build or rebuild or leave your relationship with as little damage as possible. I will guide you in making the right choice for yourself. Therapy consists of examining each person's history, as well as your current issues. A unique course is then set for you depending upon your needs. Boundary setting, dealing with communication, conflict resolution, increasing intimacy, can all be accomplished. I work both as an educator and a coach as you practice skills. We unpack small happenings to examine where and how things went wrong, and then I will give you concrete examples of how to rectify things between you. When you come, we will build it!

A good relationship is not one without problems, it is one that can work through problems. Issues arise between couples who are either married, engaged to be married or dating. If a couple does not know how to navigate peacefully through a conflict and tends to avoid it or gets into heated power struggles, nothing gets resolved, resentment builds and repairs are never made. Conjoint therapy involves learning how to communicate more effectively, redefine your relationship, heal past wounds, talk without criticizing and listen without defending. I will help you and your partner identify the issues and will help you to decide what changes are needed for both of you to feel satisfied.
Ron Jackson, MS
I love providing engagement or premarital counseling or just couple insights into their relationship. I highly recommend couple counseling to learn about each other and to hopefully improve their relationship. It is a delight to learn all about your partner before you make any big decision. Couple counseling also becomes a safe place to learn problem solving skills or to look into that last big disagreement you had and to discover what is really going on between you two. All couple counseling includes testing which includes the Taylor Johnson Temperament Analysis inventory as well as the Prepare-Enrich Testing.
Martin Hsia, Psy.D.
I counsel couples from an Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT) model, helping couples break their cycles of conflict by truly hearing and understanding what each partner is communicating. This means helping couples see past what they are arguing about to the actual significance of those unresolved tension-filled subjects, and learning how to communicate effectively to get on the same page.
Lucy Cotter, LMFT
I specialize in Couples Therapy at the Narrative Couples Center. I help couples to achieve new stories for the future. My approach is strength-based. It explores what couples hold most precious in their lives and relationships and brings people closer to their hopes and preferences. My counseling offers tools and collaboration to help couples move towards shared understanding.

Being in a relationship takes work. Learning to communicate, learning to listen, learning to respond rather than react can be accomplished during relationship counseling. Just as you can learn to dance like a star, you can learn the intimate dance of relating. We each bring our history into a relationship. We bring habitual ways of relating, childhood experiences, past relationships into each relationship. Learning how to truly connect with another human being takes effort and commitment. Overcoming our past, unlearning habits, learning new styles in order to develop a rewarding present relationship requires professional help in the same way as learning to dance requires a dance coach.

I work with pre-marital, marital, and couples that are dating. Many times these couples come into counseling very frustrated and feel misunderstood by their partners. This conflict leads to arguing and eventually to thoughts of disolving the relationship. I work together with these couples by integrate techniques designed to generate understanding of the viewpoint of their partner. From this understanding we work together on building the relationship by a blending of the strengths and weaknesses of each partner. Success is achieved by a consistent working through of issues, each time with the partners taking more responsibility with the tools that they have learned from previous sessions.

You often hear couples say: "we've just grown apart," "we just can't seem to communicate," we were going along fine and then the wheels just seemed to fall off the wagon." Often the problem is about how each person attempts to get their needs met , while they and the world around them is changing, resulting in ruptures their relationship. Often, the means of getting one's needs met, must be renegotiated. Or, there may have been an outright break of trust causing ruptures in the relationship. Exploring whether trust can be restored requires both people working through and tolerate their own, and the others myriad of emotions. Let me help you store your relationship.

Every couple's problems are unique to their relationship. To quickly understand the assets and liabilities in this relationship, I use PREPARE-ENRICH, a computer administered inventory each partner can take at home. This gives an MRI or CAT scan, as it were, of the relationship in ten areas: communication, conflict resolution, partner style and habits, financial management, leisure activities, sexual relationship, family and friends, roles and responsibilities, spiritual beliefs, and forgivness. It also describes couple typology (what kind of a relationship you have), relationship dynamics, a personal stress profile for each partner, a couple and a family of origin map, and the SCOPE Persona
Amie Lowery-Luyties, MFT, MS
The main thing I notice couples coming in for is to work on trust issues, communication problems, and lack of intimacy within the relationship. This can manifest into anger, affairs, shutting down, and a number of other behaviors. I work with couples FIRST on what does work, so that they can build upon skills they already possess within their relationship. 2: Teaching basic listening skills so that partners feel heard. 3: Teaching the couples how to communicate without attacking. 4: implementing those skills at home. Therapy is much more complex than this, and there are many more aspects of communication, but building strengths is very important to relationship success.
Harriet Kaiser, M.A., M.F.T.
If you are a powerful, modern individual who wants to improve interactions with a partner, you'll benefit from interacting with a third person - the therapist - who can represent the best interest or highest good for your "relationship" . It helps to check in each week in order to stay related to the tough issues in your relationship - money, kids, romance, work , one another's frustrations and issues. We'll work on them in session each week where you are both feeling safe and respected. Then you can go about your week knowing that time is set aside to work on the "relationship". Change will come about gradually and naturally.

As we grow older, we sometimes take our partners for granted, and think they "should be able" to read our minds or be able to meet our needs. I like to use Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy and communication skill-building to help couples clearly tell each other what issues they feel are important and what they need from each other for resolution. If you are looking to save your relationship, or find someway to compassionately part from each other, I can help you.
Erin Sumner, MS, MFT
My specialty! Couples counseling is for any relationship that is having problems or for any couple that wants to strengthen their relationship. This is sometimes referred to as Marriage Counseling or Premarital Counseling but is not limited to these relationships. I also counsel same-gender couples and separated couples seeking improved co-parenting. In therapy, I watch the interactions and communication between the couple to see where the dysfunction exists. Most relationship problems are a result of poor communication or poor intimacy. I help couples to increase self-awareness about how their own behavior is contributing to the dysfunction of the relationship. Homework Homework Homework!
Craig Clark, Ph.D.
Living with another person can be difficult, whether you are married or considering marriage. When communication breaks down, it can be hard to understand another person's point of view. Couple counseling with a neutral professional can be very helpful. The most common isses concern finances and sex, including infedelity, sexual dysfunctions, and sexual addiction. As a psychologist, Dr. Clark works with people from all cultures and backgrounds, including alternative lifestyles.

I have been helping couples heal their relationships for more than 25 years. Effective therapy includes developing a clear understanding of the different family "cultures" couples have been raised in, and a clear perspective of how early hurts and pain can be retriggered by the current marital or couple relationship. Communication skills are essential for working through chronic or immediate pain a couple is experiencing together--and empathy for the each other's perspective is at the heart of those skills. It is also essential to know when a relationship has the potential to open up and grow, and when development together is no longer possible due to abuse or excessive hostility.
Heather Browne, PsyD, MA, LMFT
My goal is to help the couple learn how to love each other well. We work on learning how to express their needs and desires and also how to give to the other in the way that they need. I require homework assignments to develop intimacy and passion on a daily basis. We work on sexuality and physical closeness. Communication, anger management, roles and responsibiliteis are all addressed as needed. I am a nationally touring group counselor for New Life Ministries couple conventions. I have a hugs bag of tools and techniques as well as experience in leading couple retreats. Couples are my specialty.

What do you hope for with your partner? In couples therapy, we improve communication, bridge differences, and promote change. People come to couples therapy at many stages of relationship: pre-marital counseling; navigating differences in time management; blending households and families; birth of a child; infidelity; divorce -- any time a couple is seeking to change behaviors that are causing pain. When a life stressor has begun to affect your partnership in an unwanted way, or if you are seeking to be heard differently by your partner, the skills you learn in couples therapy will create a more mutually satisfying relationship.
Ilissa Banhazl, MFT
Couple's counseling is my favorite kind of therapy. There's always so much energy in the room. Most couples are looking for communication skills. I teach that and I also teach what to do when a discussion turns into an argument. I also teach that there is no right or wrong, just differences. You'll learn to how accept those differences. Do you want to be happy or right? Most couples come in when they are about to end the relationship. They come to give it one last try so they know they've done all they could before they give up, especially when there are children involved. Is it time to save your relationship?
Judy Zexter, L.C.S.W.
Couples seek counseling at various stages of their relationships and for a variety of different reasons. I am an experienced therapist who assists couples with conflict resolution, parenting issues, communication breakdowns and decision making, i.e. getting married, having children. I provide a safe and supportive environment in which couples can identify and express their concerns, needs and wants. By helping couples to communicate clearly and effectively (as opposed to defensively), a greater understanding and ability to respond to one another can be achieved, This will, in turn, contribute to a healthier partnership.
Mark Reid, MA
Are you feeling disconnected from your partner? Drifting apart? Constantly fighting? Leading separate lives? It would be a privilege to help you reconnect and find the love that brought you together in the first place. I will help you understand why it doesn’t feel safe to truly express how you feel and create the safety necessary to share all of you with one another.
Kim Czemeres, M.A., LMFT
As a couple, you both may be experiencing a wide range of relationship issues or problems. Unlike marital counseling, couples counseling tends to focus on those aspects of a relationship that may be somewhat similar to those found in a marriage but within a different context. Together, we can strive towards recognizing and understanding your relationship and address those challenges impeding a more meaningful and fulfilling connection.
Rebecca Kahane, MA, LMFT
Our relationships can be the greatest source of joy and comfort and the biggest source of pain. I believe that we choose our relationships as a way to repair the wounds of our family of origin childhood experiences. As a result, we may come to experience a similar pain with our partner as we did with our parents. I assist couples to move out of blame, judgment and criticism that keep them stuck in the same old arguments and move them towards empathy, understanding and acceptance . I help couples rebuild trust and increase intimacy by developing good communication and listening skills and working towards creative problem solving.

All couples face challenges in a relationship. What makes some relationships last and others that don't is a combination of communication skills and commitment to making the marriage work. Many marriages test people to their limit, but that doesn't mean it's a bad marriage. If you are able to hang in there and work with a trusted professional, you can expand and grow into a more loving and nurturing person.

When couples begin to have problems, it usually menas that the communication between the couple has failed. Sometimes other issues are involved as well, such as children, finanicial, career goals, sexual issues and infedelity. If you both are willing to work, listen and even change a bit then I can help you improve your relationship. I can teach you better communication skills and better understanding of where each person may be coming from. Communication is key to a healthy relationship.
Carl H. Shubs, Ph.D.
Married, dating, heterosexual, gay, or bisexual? I specialize in emotional intimacy, sex, addiction, and trauma, any of which can derail a relationship.
You can heal your relationship or end it. I can help either way. Improve communication and handle conflicts better. Get your emotional baggage out of the way so it doesn’t hurt your relationship. Better for the couple and especially better when there are kids.
Have kids and you’re divorcing? You’re still tied together. We can make that less damaging for everyone. Kids do better when their divorced parents work together for the kids’ best interest – dealing with emotions and communication better and not putting kids in the middle.

To achieve our goal of getting love we want from our relationship, the process must begin at the beginning by looking at your earliest relationships in life and not only recognizing the traits of those early care givers but also realizing that those very same qualities are the ones we are repeatedly seeking out unconsciously in our adult partners.
Learning to access your own true emotions intra-psychically and express them genuinely, honestly, and directly, as well as being able to listen, hear, and mirror another’s truly shared deep feelings and thoughts are keys to having highly effective and functional relationships. Learn to own your own feelings and your own role in your relationships

In couples therapy, I use the first session or two for discernment therapy, that is, clarifying the goals to be sure both parties are equally committed to the relationship. Then, I verbalize rules and guidelines that requires both to respect me, each other and the process. I strive to remain neutral and to allow each person enough time, without interruption, to express their concerns about the relationship. To help each person get what they need, I act as a mediator and negotiate for changes in the relationship..

Couples counseling is not just for those who are married. Couples include those living together or apart, those in same sex relationships, or any two individuals who would like to work on making their relationship healthier. Couples counseling can enhance an already good relationship and can create healthier communication and intimacy in those relationships who are struggling.

The love you once felt for each other when you met and decided to live together is still there. Love appears to erode and even disappear as we take our relationship for granted. We can become Insensitive, lazy, stop being involved, intimate or concerned and understanding. These disconnections lead to more and more distance over time. Arguing or indifference can become a way of life. Along with a lack of intimacy, sex,sharing of interests and even simple communication. This disconnect in the relationship can lead to abuse, betrayal, infidelity, separation and divorce.
in Couples Counseling we will identify the issues, set goals and activities to reconnect with the love that is still there.
Anthony Fiore, Ph.D.
I specialize in couples and marriage counseling. My approach is based on recent research in marriage science showing what habits successful couples have that other do not. My approach is skills based and practical, teaching both of you how to communicate more effectively, how to understand each other, how to decide what is changeable and what is not in your relationship, how to deal with perpetual issues,on which you may be deadlocked, and different ways to view issues and problems in your relationship to reduce conflict. I also help you identify what is working in your relationship, (or what used to work) so that we can build on the positive.
Will Baum, LCSW
Couples therapy can be enormously effective helping reduce stress and conflict in your relationship. People come to couples therapy at every stage of their relationship. Some come for premarital counseling, others are struggling with the sometimes difficult early years of marriage or with the changes that parenting can bring to a solid-seeming partnership. Still others come to couples therapy as their relationship seems to be falling apart. What are you going through right now? Call to discuss your situation and whether couples therapy could be right for you.

He thinks it is her fault and she thinks it is his. Some couples blame, accuse, and criticize. Others live separate lives, almost as distant friends living in the same house. Sometimes someone cheats on the other or goes off alone to view pornography, leaving the unresolved conflicts of the relationship in the background. A fearful lover may either hide in some way or try to desperately control the other. If you are on the brink of splitting up, but not quite ready to totally give up, then now is the crucial time to seek help.

With the busy lives we all have it can be hard to get a couples schedule to match up to even schedule an appointment. With that in mind, my goal when a couple is struggling is to help them get back on track with their relationship as quickly as possible. Often couples just need a quick "tune-up" over key issues such as infidelity, financial difficulties, parenting differences, or just feeling like they've grown apart. I provide solution oriented brief therapy for couples focusing on communication styles, listening skills and getting your individual needs met within the relationship. Partnered or married many of my couples find relief to their presenting struggle within 4-6 sessions.

I have worked with many, many couples over the years...married, living together, same sex or heterosexual. My initial focus is to understand the underlying dynamics and pain that each of the partners is experiencing in the relationship and what has caused the conflict, disappointment and distress they now feel. I then work to help each of them empathically understand the needs of the other, and be able to communicate (hearing what the other means and "feels" and expressing what they need and feel) in more loving, respectful and clear ways. We work together to restore the attachment and bond that has been damaged so that they can rediscover love, intimacy, trust and respect for each other.

All couple relationships go through stages of development. After falling love, couples often hit an impasse. I work from a Developmental Model perspective. That means helping the couple develop skills along with insights as to the causes of the misunderstandings, that if not confronted can lead to pain. It's a challenge in today's fast paced world to balance career, family AND nurture your relationship. It's more cost effective to try to repair the relationship than declare it dead! Your partner won't come to counseling? I will work with one partner because when one person within the system makes a change, it forces the other within the system to adapt to the change.
Natalia Voinov, Ph.D.
You and your significant partner may have hit a road block. Your relationship is stumbling and doesn't seem to be what it used to be in the very beginning. Both of you may have accumulated and bottled up a host of untold feelings, frustration, resentment, anger. No matter how hard you try, you seem to get the same results that would look like an endless cycle of disappontments and broken promises. Crises don't have to remain crises, time lost in draining discussions can be reversed. I can help you enhance communication skills, relieve your anxieties, lessen your angry reactions and, most of all, replace "poison" with "potion".

Cindy Kludt, M.A., LMFT
One of the main reasons couples come in for counseling is because they want the other person to change so that they can feel better. My focus with couples is to help them identify what their needs are and to then help negotiate communication between them to determine who is responsible for those needs. Once each person in the couple gets clarity about who is really responsible for those needs, it allows for a stronger and more loving relationship because there is no longer any need or desire to try and control the other person. It reduces blame and shame and each person feels a freedom to personally grow within the relationship.

Couple dynamics are complicated and thus require a multi-pronged approach. My goal is to focus on the improvement of intimacy,communication, and conflict/resolution. This is accomplished by not only understanding the strengths and deficits of the couples' current relationship patterns but by also coming to understand the individual experiences that each member of the couple brings to the couple dynamic. Each member of the couple has a wealth of experiences, feelings, behaviors and beliefs that were formed well before the couple was formed. Understanding the impact of those separate experiences as well as current couple dynamic creates space for understanding, recover, and healing.

We expect a lot from romance & marriage these days - and a lot of the time we end up disappointed. Divorce rates are sky-rocketing. Many people are frustrated in their efforts to have a loving, caring, rewarding relationship. In my experience, almost all couples have communication and closeness issues. We are frustrated and confused when we seem to end up hurting the one we love. We crave intimacy - but it eludes us. Sex is unsatisfying or problematic. Here's the great news: There ARE solutions for these issues! The bad news is no one teaches them to you. If you come to me, I will teach you the skills you two need to live happily ever after. It won't be easy, but it is very do-able.

Therapy offers a supportive environment where you can communicate in a safe way... learn to calm down, listen and validate the other person... become more aware of each other's over-reactions and vulnerabilities... understand each other's needs... clarify commonalities and differences in your relationship goals... negotiate, accept and move on to a better emotional state. With objective guidance, I can provide you with insights, exercises and concrete skills to help you transform your relationship into a lasting source of love and companionship... or find the courage to end what cannot be repaired.

Relationships are an area where young adults can struggle. Wanting to create lasting bonds, they don't always think about who is a good match for them, given their family values, and plans for their life. Past failed relationships can also leave young adults hesitant to open their hearts and try to find love again.
I help young adults discover what it takes to create the loving relationship they've always dreamed of. I also facilitate the important pre-marital discussions between couples that are necessary prior to beginning their life together as a married couple.

I have been helping straight and gay couples build stronger, healthier relationships for over 10 years. I feel that helping couples is my most important calling. Relationships are so fundamental, and the challenges we struggle with are so universal. At the same time, gay and lesbian couples have specific issues and needs, and it's very important to have a therapist that understands these issues and who can provide that extra level of connection that can make all the difference. Whether gay or straight, in our couples counseling work your relationship will be recognized and understood for its uniqueness. I believe in your relationship and will be pulling for you every step of the way.
Trish Phillips, M.A., MFT
A couple that is seeking counseling is making an unspoken statement that their relationship is very important to them. It can be painful and uncomfortable to try to let down our walls with someone we love who has hurt us, doesn't listen or see us anymore, or has cheated on us. Maybe you just lost your way in the relationship and have drifted apart. Whatever your situation, I can help both partners learn to listen and communicate clearly as well as pin point areas in the relationship that may need some work.

The therapeutic relationship resembles the couple’s relationship, in that a foundation of mutual acceptance, support and respect will allow you to feel a sense of trust and safety with one another. One of the goals is to increase each partner’s awareness of themselves and their partner. As you gain insight in to the patterns of interaction between you, I can help you gain the skills necessary to reverse ineffective ways of communicating and behaving with each other. These new skills will help you better manage problems and life stressors when they present themselves. Working together as a team, you can create the relationship you really desire.

As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I work with many couples. Couples, both married and non-married, often come to see me because of poor communication and feeling adrift in the relationship. Whatever your reason is, it is important to have a safe place with an impartial third party to help guide your relationship through the difficult times.
I can assist you to learn to negotiate your differences, connect with your hopes, and express your feelings more honestly and more purposefully. Escaping negative interactions and re-aligning with your partner can make a big difference in your relationship.

Working with couples is a joy for me! I have a high success rate: approximately 85%. I help men and women make the transition from being single to being a unit, helping them learn to work together as a team. My primary aim is to make my clients feel at ease. I truly care about them and help them explore the underlying concerns and move forward to achieve the best possible results.
Linda Nusbaum, M.A., MFT
Living happily in your relationship. This is what all couples want. So why is it so difficult to achieve? We start out with high hopes for a happy life. Unfortunately in many cases couples fall into patterns of communicating with each other that cause hurt feelings and anger. Learn how to create new ways of talking with each other. I specialize in helping couples find their way back to a loving, supportive environment.
Couples counseling doesn't last forever. In most cases you might be in counseling for a few months. It works. The couples I counsel feel better about themselves and each other. Make your relationship the one you want today.

I believe couples naturally select partners who will eventually restimulate old hurts. If couples can recognize this, then conflict becomes an opportunity for healing and growth. My job in working with couples is to help them identify these old hurts and work together with one another to understand and provide compassion for one another as they do this work. Emotional intimacy is the natural outcome of this powerful work.

Couples counseling is a wonderful opportunity to truly connect. Learning new ways of bonding with our partners is much easier than you may think and I believe it is truly a must in any relationship. I don't want to force partners in but rather encourage them to see the potential that exists within your relationship. My reality over the years is that you are going to get stuck at some point. That's ok. We just need to help you through it. Individual needs cannot be sacrificed and truly do not have to be. Let's see what we can do together.

I think of myself as the couples witness, there to remind each person of what they previously stated as being important to them. Problems arise when both parties can’t hold a dual awareness of their own experience. Happily mated means meeting personal needs in a win-win, not at the expense of the other person’s needs, nor sacrificing any basic need within ourself. We all meet as a couple first and sometimes, I will meet with each person on individual basis. This is so each person can learn how to effectively self-regulate their sensations and emotions, reducing their instinctual “fight or flight” response.
Taji Huang, Ph.D.
My name is Dr. Taji Huang and I have dedicated the past 12 years of my career to the field of mental health in a very broad range of mental health settings. I have had the priviledge of working closely with children, adolescents and adults in individual, couples, family and group settings. One of the tools that I use is psychotherapy, which involves regular face-to-face meetings with the psychologist. Sessions typically last between 45-50 minutes, one or more times per week; depending on the case. In this confidential and safe setting, clients have the opportunity to explore personal issues with someone who has unique listening skills.

Last year, I have did over 80 hours of training in couples therapy. Nothing feels more important to me than to help people create great relationships. I have had much success over the past 16 years in helping couples; whether dating, married, newlyweds, separated, divorced (to create a successful co-parenting relationship, even when they can't stand to be in the same room), & those divorcing, so they can navigate the process with grace. Best advice: Come in before you think you HAVE TO, for the least # of sessions, don't wait. You are not a failure if you are having trouble in your relationship. Businesses hire consultants & so should you for the most important & complicated part of life.

The road to developing a healthy, mutually satisfying relationship often take a surprising turn. Something happens that can bring you to a place of confusion and distress. I have joined many couples at this point and been able to provide support and help in developing the safety they need in their relationship to work through things effectively. I provide them with tools to communicate honestly, manage their conflicts without damaging their connection, and become comfortable in being truly known to each other.
William Josephs, Ph.D.
Couples counseling helps improve people's relationships by helping them to understand how styles of communication often can promote or interfere with appreciating the other. Unproductive communication styles are rooted in the habits of individuals to be focused upon own concerns, leading to difficulty tolerating their differences. Couples learn to be better able to focus, listen and understand each other; toward the aim of getting what they want out of the relationship while allowing the other to be just as ardent about their goals. Each individual has equal bearing upon their relationship and shared responsibility is the key to fluid, harmonious relationships.

Couples often find themselves in a destructive pattern of fighting, often over trivial issues, in essence, having the same fight over and over. After identifying the effects of the fighting behaviors on each partner, and the relationship, together we'll identify more effective ways to approach the differences you are struggling with, and reconnect with the best intentions you each hold for the relationship. This sets the stage for supporting the growth of faith in the relationship and trust in your partner. Differences can then be addressed in an atmosphere of good faith, mutual recognition and acceptance.
