We Specialize in Couples Counseling

All of our therapists have 20+ years of experience. We specialize in relationships and couples work.

Do we need a therapist?

We often face pressure to act like our relationships are great. However, pushing our real feelings down can have many harmful consequences: emotional, behavioral, and even physical.

Couples come to therapy with many unique problems and goals. We offer two styles of counseling to meet the needs of every relationship.
1. Traditional Couples Counseling and 2. Advanced Relationship Therapy.  Learn more here.

The main driver of outcomes in therapy:

There is a significant amount of scientific research literature to support the importance of the therapist and the therapist-client relationship as the primary drivers of success.  There are over 400 therapeutic techniques in clinical psychology, however what drives client outcomes is the quality and skill of the clinician, irrespective of the therapeutic tradition they come from.

In other words, what matters is a great therapist and a personal connection between client and therapist.
