Couple counseling can lead to reestablishing the trust and intimacy in your relationship. Your relationship is definitely worth fighting for, and needs to be given a real chance to succeed. Couples therapy can offer the tools and space you need as a couple to give your relationship that chance.
You might be feeling very little hope for your relationship right now. I see my job as holding that hope for you for a while, until you can see whether it is possible to rebuild your commitment.
The question isn’t whether you’re committed for life, but whether you both can commit now to working in therapy on your relationship.
Some possible areas of focus in couple’s therapy are:
• Healing from an affair
• Endless arguments
• Feeling distant/Growing apart
• Getting past hurt
• Differences in parenting
• Sex and intimacy
Together we will create a safe space to explore your relationship. As a skilled witness, I will help to uncover underlying dynamics and destructive patterns in your interactions with one another, and help you to break out of them, providing new tools to communicate your needs without falling into familiar conflict patterns. This works to restore trust, allowing you to rediscover the joy, surprise, and closeness in your relationship.
