Great Couples Counseling in Bunker Hill Village, TX. Therapy to heal relationships.

Be it married, partnered, dating, engaged, separated, divorced, or another arrangement, I offer couples counseling to help address concerns you have about your relationship. Couples counseling is unique because your relationship is my client. I consider the unique needs of you and your partner, but the main focus is on your relationship. My role in couples counseling is to assist communication in your relationship. My approach involves teaching you and your partner skills to distinguish healthy communication from unhealthy communication. The idea is for your relationship to replace unhealthy patterns of interaction with healthier styles of communication.

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?

Relationships can be so hard and can feel easily disconnected. It takes maintenance and work to continue a healthy relationship. Just because you are fighting does not mean your relationship is bad or dysfunctional. It is about how you both can get through conflict together that makes the difference. Therapy can help you better communicate and connect with each other. Validation, empathy, and intimacy are key components to a relationship. One of my passions is to help you have a better relationship.

There are countless models of healthy romantic relationships, from monogamous to polyamorous, and unique variations between partners. The scripts for dating and longterm relationships of our parents’ generations may not be applicable to your relationship, and there is no formal education in how to be a good partner or how to identify unhealthy relationships. But there is psychological research that shows that effective communication, emotional openness, intimacy, and other factors contribute to healthy relationships. Creating these conditions are skills that can be learned. I practice brief humanistic and emotion-focused therapy (EFT) to help my LGBTQ and hetero clients learn these skills.

I facilitate constructive and open dialogues to strengthen relationships. Through effective communication strategies and conflict resolution techniques, I guide couples in addressing issues and enhancing emotional connection. My goal is to help partners rediscover shared goals, improve mutual understanding, and cultivate a healthier and more fulfilling partnership.
