Great Couples Counseling in Welby, CO. Therapy to heal relationships.

When working with couples, I use talk therapy, a family systems approach, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Working with couples is unique and can be complex. It is important to examine each person as an individual, help them become their best self and then work on ways to help them grow together as a unit. It is to be noted that it is difficult to achieve progress with couples therapy if both parties are not fully committed to the therapy process.

In couples therapy, I collaborate with you to explore the stories shaping your relationship and examine how certain narratives may be influencing patterns between you and your partner. Rather than assigning blame, we work together to see the relationship’s challenges as external influences, making room for understanding and empathy. By identifying shared values and preferred ways of relating, we co-create new narratives that support deeper connection, trust, and intimacy. This process helps both partners reconnect with each other in ways that honor each person's voice and foster a stronger, more resilient partnership.

No matter the type of partnership or relationship you are in, they take attention and adaptation flourish. With all of the various priorities and obligations, sometimes our relationships take a back seat. My goal as a therapist is to reestablish connection by helping both partners learn more about themselves, their partner, the partnership, and defining how you both want to move forward with clarity and respect.

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 don’t 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?
