Great Couples Counseling in Scottsdale, AZ. Therapy to heal relationships.

What are the most common couples' issues? If you are thinking "communication, conflict, sex, money, child rearing" you are correct. However, most therapists will go after the symptom on each side of the couple fence thinking that the way to effective change is by getting each party to "work" on their respective "issue". Many times the parties dont agree but comply. Imagine if you could align the unconscious brains of a couple and stop the "working on your issues" part that has become so popular in therapy settings?

Sometimes couples experience a rough patch, lose their way with one another and need guidance in coming back together. Some may know they want to stay together but need tools for better communication and understanding while others may be unsure of their future together. In working with couples, I address their past and how it may be interfering with their relationship now and work on addressing needs, wants, expectations and hurts without attacking or blaming one another. My goals include helping the couple to understand each other better, improve communication so each feels heard, teach skills to manage conflicts once therapy has terminated and strengthen their friendship and attachment.

You fell in love with your partner, enjoyed the heady first days of the relationship, but staying in love is difficult. Your relationship isn't what it was or you want, you "can't seem to get it right", or even start. The "happily ever after" fairy tale has soured. You can reauthor your story - you know life is not a fairy tale, but the real tale is far more interesting. Therapy is not about being broken, sick or wrong. It's about growth, courage & moving forward. You can learn practical skills to create an authentic loving relationship which includes passion & intimacy as well as caring & communication. It is exciting & joyful to rediscover your feelings for each other.
