Great Couples Counseling in Norcross, GA. Therapy to heal relationships.

Everyone enters into relationships and marriage with their own set of ideas and their own ways of handling stress and difficulties. Many times the skills we learned as children to handle difficult situations and relational conflict are the same skills that we are trying to manage with as adults. Changing the way one reacts to stress in relationships and enhancing communication skills are key in developing healthy marriages and couple relationships.

Whether you’re having specific relationship issues or not, couples counseling can make your relationship better. Most couples only seek help when in a crisis involving infidelity, communication issues, waning intimacy, money, feeling unwanted/unappreciated, in-laws, etc. While these problems may seem insurmountable, with patience and mutual work, it’s possible to resolve them. I provide a safe & supportive space for both partners to explore thoughts and feelings about each other and the relationship and provide practical help to overcome obstacles. Your relationship satisfaction is key to your happiness. Couples counseling can help you regain what you’ve lost or find what you never had.

A happy and fulfilled partner relationship is a complex matter. Even if it is not dealing with any significant problems, routine, and boredom can lead to new problems. Who can benefit from couples counseling? - Loving couples wanting to improve their relationship. - Dissatisfied couples wanting to improve their relationship. - Engaged couples looking for insight into healthy relationships. - Couples considering separation or divorce.

Couples are as unique as the individuals in the relationship. However, most couples go through similar cycles in their lives together, and have difficulty with communication and managing conflict. Some couples tend to avoid difficult discussions, and may simply sweep controversial topics aside. Other couples interact with anger, hostility and even aggression. Both of these types are negative and prevent you and your partner from having a fun, fulfilling, committed relationship. I will provide assessment for your relationship, and then teach you both skills to use to improve your communication and conflict resolution. Most couples can improve their relationship in 6-10 sessions.

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?
