Marriage & Couples Counseling
Nurture Your Connection
Every relationship has its ups and downs. No matter how strong your bond is, there are times when communication falters, connection fades, or life’s stressors pull you in different directions.
At Integrative Therapy & Coaching, we offer couples counseling to help you and your partner reconnect, resolve conflicts, and build a healthier, more fulfilling partnership—together.
Whether you’re navigating a crisis or simply looking to strengthen your connection, our therapy sessions are a safe, supportive space where both partners are heard, respected, and guided toward shared goals.
Couples Counseling Can Help You:
- Enhance Communication:
Learn to express yourself with clarity, listen with empathy, and break unhelpful cycles of miscommunication. We help you move from conflict to collaboration. - Rebuild or Deepen Intimacy:
Intimacy isn’t just physical—it’s emotional, too. Reignite connection, vulnerability, and passion, whether you’ve grown distant over time or never quite felt fully seen by your partner. - Navigate Life Transitions as a Team:
From becoming parents to dealing with job loss, moving, or retirement—big life changes can shake the foundation of any relationship. Therapy helps you face transitions with resilience and mutual support. - Recover After Infidelity or Betrayal:
Healing after broken trust takes time, care, and expert guidance. Our therapists create a structured space to explore the impact of infidelity and move toward rebuilding trust—if that’s what both partners desire. - Work Through Ongoing Relationship Challenges:
Address recurring issues such as:- Parenting and discipline differences
- Finances and budgeting stress
- Division of responsibilities
- In-law or extended family conflicts
- Different communication or attachment styles
- Sexual or emotional disconnection
No matter how small or significant your challenges may feel, couples therapy offers space to address them with intention and compassion.

Our therapists are trained in evidence-based couples therapy models, which may include:
- Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT):
EFT is based on attachment theory and helps couples understand the emotional patterns that drive conflict. By creating emotional safety, partners can better connect, respond to each other’s needs, and rebuild closeness. - The Gottman Method:
Developed from decades of research, this method focuses on strengthening the foundation of friendship, improving conflict management, and creating shared meaning through rituals, goals, and dreams. - Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT):
Rather than dwelling only on past problems, this approach helps you identify strengths, focus on what’s working, and take small steps toward your ideal relationship.
We may draw from one or more of these approaches depending on your needs, always keeping the focus on growth, connection, and practical change.
Who We Work With
Couples counseling is appropriate for people of all backgrounds, sexual orientations, gender identities, and relationship structures.
We welcome:
- Dating or pre-marital couples who want to strengthen their bond or prepare for the future
- Married couples experiencing stress, distance, or dissatisfaction
- Long-term partnerships with or without legal marriage
- New parents navigating the shift in identity and dynamics after having a child
- Couples in crisis , considering separation or struggling with infidelity

You don’t have to be on the brink of separation to benefit from therapy. Many couples come to us simply wanting more—more understanding, more connection, more peace.
Is Couples Counseling Right for You?
If you’re unsure whether therapy is the right step, here are some signs that it may be helpful:
- You keep having the same argument over and over
- One or both partners feel unheard, dismissed, or misunderstood
- There’s been a breakdown in trust, or a betrayal has occurred
- Life transitions have created distance or tension
- Intimacy (emotional or physical) has decreased
- You avoid discussing important topics to prevent conflict
- You feel more like roommates than romantic partners
- You want tools to strengthen your relationship before challenges arise
Couples counseling can help you uncover what’s beneath the surface, reconnect with each other’s needs, and create a shared vision for your future.
What to Expect in Couples Therapy
The process begins with an initial consultation where both partners can share their concerns, goals, and hopes. Your therapist will gather a clear understanding of your relationship history and what brings you in now.
From there, sessions are structured to:
- Help each partner feel heard and validated
- Explore patterns of communication and behavior
- Develop practical tools for conflict resolution
- Rebuild trust and increase emotional safety
- Foster curiosity, vulnerability, and empathy
Couples therapy isn’t about assigning blame. It’s about understanding what each partner needs, and learning how to meet those needs in healthy, loving ways.
